2008 Dependency Summit Videos
Florida's annual statewide Dependency Summit is an exciting opportunity for child welfare professionals throughout the state to share best practices and continue the advancement of child welfare practice in Florida. At the Summit, child protective investigators, community-based care administration and case management staff as well as judges, general magistrates, children's legal services attorneys, law enforcement, medical and mental health providers and child advocates join together to benefit from increased coordination, communication and creativity among their fields. The event is structured to allow for multidisciplinary workshops, meetings by profession and planning sessions for local child welfare representatives.

The Center is pleased to share with you videotaped recordings of several of the 2008 Summit workshops.  Click on the links below to view.  Also available are the handouts, including PowerPoint slides, of nearly all of the workshops, including those not in our video library.
