Why Relationships Matter in Helping Families Get Connected to Resources
Relationships are foundational in connecting families with the resources they need. These connections are built on trust, respect, and effective interpersonal skills. Successful relationships require individuals to be courteous, trustworthy, compassionate, empathetic, active listeners, non-judgmental, and supportive.
When a relationship is established on these principles, it fosters partnerships that empower individuals and families, enhancing their confidence and engagement. A relationship grounded in integrity and authenticity demonstrates to families that their success is genuinely valued by the resource provider. This connection encourages families to openly share their needs and stay motivated throughout the process.
