meeting with chidrenThe MWC course was developed for ADR practitioners interested in child inclusive practice. Meeting with Children – A Child-Centred Approach  focuses on learning the process and procedures for child meetings. The course introduces play-based and expressive approaches to meeting with children. Participants learn about 6 different child and youth focused activities (four of which practitioners choose when meeting with a child over 2 one-hour meetings). As part of this course, practitioners study video examples of a 7, 9 and 14- year- old and later make use of the play-based materials to practice exercises as outlined in the MWC manual. The Child and Youth Concerns Scale (designed to assist the practitioner to gather and organize feedback to parents) is a main tool utilized during the training. Additionally, three other practitioner tools are presented and utilized. Participants follow the case of “Lilly and Kyle” from start to finish.

The practitioner introduces each activity to Lilly and then explores and expands areas of importance to Lilly. The words of the child are recorded verbatim.
