The StreetWorks Toolkit Training is designed for any professional who is working with youth at-risk of or experiencing homelessness and/or sexual exploitation, or who may encounter youth in their work. If you are a StreetWorks Collaborative Outreach Worker, click here (link) to go to the StreetWorks Outreach Worker Certification Training page.
In partnership with the State of Minnesota’s Safe Harbor Initiative, this training is designed to support youth workers across different communities and organizational settings. The classroom sessions will provide foundational principles that inform safe and effective work with clients experiencing or at-risk of homelessness and exploitation. This training is designed to be flexible to help professionals in a wide range of settings develop tools and strategies that meet the needs of youth in their contexts.
While the training was originally developed to train outreach workers in the Twin Cities specifically, the Toolkit training was adapted to train professionals from a variety of roles who do their work both in the Twin Cities and in communities across the state.
The training includes a Classroom 101, Practical Toolkit Experience, and Classroom 201 before a trainee can earn their certificate of completion.
Trainees will participate in four on-line training sessions over the course of four days. Training sessions are schedule at 9am-12pm and 1pm-3pm, Monday through Thursday, with an hour lunch break.
Registration on Eventbrite is required, and cohorts will be limited to 15 people.
Trainees will receive a PDF copy of the StreetWorks Toolkit Trainee Workbook.
Once trainees complete the Classroom 101, they will be eligible to participate in Classroom 201 sessions also offered on Eventbrite only to those trainees that have completed CR101.
After attending the Classroom 201, trainees will receive a certificate of completion. StreetWorks staff remain available to provide consultation and support as trainees move forward in putting their new knowledge into practice in their settings.
The cost of the training is $115, and this includes the textbook and both sets of training sessions.
