Supervisors across human service settings face many challenges in a changing and dynamic system of care. As the key interface between organizational policies and practices and direct service professionals, supervisors wear many hats and struggle to balance their complex roles designed to promote the mission of the organization and support the success and compassion satisfaction of their supervisees.
This workshop is designed to provide supervisors with practical and concrete approaches to support their supervisees by: 1) providing supportive and reflective supervision, 2) supporting professional development, 3) managing performance difficulties requiring “courageous conversations”, 4) managing levels of emotional stress and 5) creating a trusting and physically, psychologically and culturally safe work environment that collectively increases compassion satisfaction and workforce retention.
The interactive open data dashboard helps you visualize and track the citybudget, with a specific focus on the critical human services funding we rely on.
FPWA has recently been receiving claims from members of the public emailing and calling our offices that individuals posing as FPWA agents have contacted them claiming that in order for the recipient to claim grant monies from FPWA they must first send the agent personal information, a cell phone number, gift card codes or money.
FPWA does not use social media (Facebook, Twitter, etc.), text messages or direct phone contact to solicit, review, or make awards. FPWA staff will not call or message you requesting money in order to be eligible for an award.
Further, FPWA does not make grants directly to individuals. FPWA works with its member agency partners and other reputable community-based organizations to direct support to families and individuals in our community.
If you or someone you know has been contacted by someone posing to be an “FPWA Agent” or staff person requesting money to release a grant, please do the following:
Cease communications with the individual contacting you claiming to be an “FPWA Agent” and do not provide any further personal information to them;
You or the affected individual should file a police report in the local jurisdiction of attempted fraud with the information you have available from them – a phone number, a Facebook messenger profile, etc. It is likely they have compromised a friend or family members Facebook account to make it seem like a qualified referral;
You or the affected individual should pass all information to the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) (www.ic3.gov); and,
You or the affected individual should file a complaint with the Federation Trade Commission online, or call toll-free 1-877-FTC-HELP (1-877-382-4357); TTY: 1-866-653-4261.
If you have questions prior to reporting your incident, view the IC3 FAQs for more information.
