Florida State University (FSU)’s Florida Institute for Child Welfare (FICW), School of Social Work seeks to promote safety, permanency and well-being among the children and families of Florida that are involved with the child welfare system through research, outreach, education and policy reform.

In collaboration with SOAR and Tallahassee Community College (TCC), we conducted leadership training on topics such as vulnerability, motivation, change management and emotional intelligence and their significance in effective leadership. Included in this work was a review of the FICW Strategic Plan and staff training to integrate staff roles, responsibilities and priorities in alignment with their overall Plan.
