NEW RESOURCE!
The previous Wellness & Reablement Consultants Beth Dawson and Liz Foster of Hume & Loddon Mallee regions were excited to share…
Gathering Stories – The art and power of storycatching in human service work - (click this link to take you to the guide)
This resource is designed to assist community and human service workers with gathering stories of people who access your service, stories of the work you have done with them, or your stories where you reflect on your own practice.
Guiding you through the process of ‘catching’ and sharing stories, the resource provides many practical strategies, ideas and hints.
Some of the areas it will ask you to consider and decide, include:
Why collect stories?
In what settings can stories be used?
Who can collect stories?
How do I manage confidentiality?
How do I manage safety?
What should I consider before collecting stories?
What are some methods for recording stories?
What are some techniques for getting stories to flow?
And many more…
Templates, questions and other useful resources within the document will then assist you to brainstorm and construct the story.
