CARES Learning Partnership is a community of professionals who believe in helping individuals with great intentions, gain the necessary skills to accomplish their mission. We specialize in helping people who help people.
A HEART OF PEACE
We were created as relational beings. When there is internal conflict relationships suffer. When relationships suffer organizations suffer from mission drift, espoused values, and loss of relevancy. In the book The Anatomy of Peace: Resolving the Heart of Conflict, by The Arbinger Insititute they describe we can choose to interact from a heart of peace or a heart of war. Change brings on conflict for some professionally, physically, personally, and many times even spiritually. It is our belief that you cannot find peace in the world, an organization, or even your family until you are at peace with yourself.
We are confident that our team’s unique experiences and creative development style will absolutely be an asset to you and your organization’s growth.
Our clients are people and organizations that want to increase their ability to function under stressful conditions and ensure their espoused values are their values in use!
Did You Know?
In October 2019, the World Health Organization sent out a shocking press release that not many people read or even knew about.
This press release stated: “Mental disorders affect one in four people. Treatment is available but not being used. One in four people in the world will be affected by mental or neurological disorders at some point in their lives. Around 450 million people currently suffer from such conditions, placing mental disorders among the leading causes of ill-health and disability worldwide.”
OUR UNIQUE DIFFERENCE
We believe knowledge is best transferred through relationships. When our journey started we did the usual “one and done” style for our workshops and training, and we continued to attend them ourselves. We decided there needed to be a better way to get the information from our presentations out of the slides into our attendee’s everyday lives.
Our three “A” process became the solution. We present (awareness), we support the concepts and methods with online e-learning modules (acquisition of tools), which allows us to structure our initial presentations. Instead of covering everything we go deeper and are more focused. Finally, we provide partnership and coaching (application of new knowledge). We have administrative coaches certified health coaches and organizational mentors helping our clients apply the knowledge they learn.
Awareness
Awareness that there is a problem is the first step. We provide presentations and workshops to help teams discover the very real stressors and trauma they are most certainly exposed to daily.
Acquisition
Acquisition of knowledge concerning the problem (acceptance). After our clients are able to see what they are up against and the need for self-care plans and leading with empathy, the next step is to give them the tools needed for sustainable change.
Application
Application of the knowledge gained to solve the problem (action). The last step in our process consists of providing ongoing coaching in applying the newly acquired knowledge. We use relationships not presentations to achieve results.
