Minimally DSS should have deep knowledge of the ages & stages of the young people they work with, know how to create caring and appropriate relationships, and have a solid grasp of the
Positive Youth Development Framework.
Offerings are aligned with the Department of Youth and Community Development Core Competencies for Youth Workers and Supervisors of Youth Workers.
