Inconsistency: Where, When, and How to Interview Children
Forensic approachCourt as a primary client
Tends to “err” on side of child safety
Children interviewed “alone” (outside the vicinity of parents)
Family assessment approachFamily as primary client
Tends to “err” on side of parents
Children can be interviewed “alone” (in another room than parents)

Recommendations
Clarify how CFI fits into overall family assessment and how social worker makes judgment about when, where, and how to interview childrenClarify when different approaches to interviewing children are most appropriateChange language in one curriculum because same language is used differently in the other

Family-Centered Meetings and Shared Parenting
Confusion about various meetingsFamily-centered meetings (FCMs)
Child and Family Team Meetings (CFTMs)
Team Decision-making Meetings (TDMs)
![Page 10: Evaluation of Training Content by Expert Judgment: The North Carolina Curriculum Review Project Dr. Elizabeth Lindsey UNC Greensboro Department of Social](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022082821/5697c0091a28abf838cc724a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What is shared parenting?
Is it a meeting or a process?
Initial meeting cannot occur during a Child and Family Team Meeting because purpose is relationship development
First CFTM takes time to organize; SP meeting must be held within 7 days of placement
After initial SP meeting, CFTMs can be considered as a part of the SP process

Policy Recommendations
Policy should more clearly define and describe shared parenting
Policy should clarify that SP contacts can be made at CFTMs as long as purposes of SP are addressed (but not initial SP meeting)

Curricular Recommendations
Need to combine 2 curricula dealing with working with foster parentsClarify relationship between CFTMS and shared parentingAdd strategies for operationalizing family-centered principlesAdd practical material on how to “do” shared parentingDocumentation
