Hope is the belief that the future will be better and you have the power to make it so. Hope is based on three main ideas: (1) the ability to set desirable goals, (2) ability to identify viable pathways to these goals, and (3) the capacity to dedicate mental energy or willpower to pursue these goals.
The science demonstrates that hope is a critical psychological strength. Hope is easily measured in children, adults, and communities. Hope can be increased and sustained through effective programming. Hope is one of the most important predictors of positive outcomes for human service agencies.
We consider hope as the theory of change required for individuals, families, organizations and whole communities. Too further explain our work, we provide several services listed below.

Child welfare training is just the start of the possibilities of the CTSW. The list of social services provided by tribes opens many areas of training and workforce development possibilities. Child welfare is the best place to start because of the funding available and the experience of those working on this project now.
The CTSW can assist with assessing the current tribal child welfare workforce to determine training needs and wants, then finding, modifying, or developing effective training in partnership with the tribe. The Center can also help strategize for the Implementation and evaluation of services, helping tribes align with federal requirements, as needed.
Current students wishing to graduate with this certificate must meet with Aubrey Fick to discuss the coursework and process.
