| Summary | This training has been adapted from the Motivational Interviewing (MI) of W. Miller & S. Rollnick[1] to FDP with the aim to help the social workers: understand the logic of their intervention recognize and accept the ambivalence of their partner families recognize and prevent resistance of the families adopt an adequate attitude to encourage families toward a positive change This training has been delivered to the 13 FDP team members of Jaipur from June 2019 onwards, 1 year after the program had started. The field experience of the SWs helped the team connect this training with concrete cases they had met on field with their partner families. Additional role-plays have been organized at each session, based on the questions of the SWs and the situations that they reported. The training has gone through the following chapters gradually (1 hour max/week) in order to keep the team concentrate and active. |
