@AodhanC @AnnaGupta2 @SiHaworth @weirhopper @Andy_Bilson @Acsocialwork @PsychSocChange @tusla @dcya @EmilyK100 Yep. Imp. to separate warm fuzzy PR speak from actual operational policies, hence ref to #PPFS18 and Corpo Plan. This thread discussed needed paradigm shift. Agree. Need to dialogue how this will occur locally, regionally, nationally, internationally; with whom; for whose benefit
Had the pleasure of hearing @SJSwords recite his work. at #tusla #PPFS18 @Fergal_landy #myireland yesterday.
Amazing!! Emotive!! Thought provoking!!
That was before the poetry.. Just fantastic.
Homeward bound now after 2 fab days at the @tusla #PPFS18 event. It was a delight to give a keynote on #trauma & #relationships. Also gr8 to get a better understanding of the preventative & participatory work w children & families, esp Meitheal. First #imhask forum in was 🤗.
Brilliant art work summarises #PPFS18

Dr Aisling Gillen states that the Atlantic Philanthropies 8.3 million in funding for the original Prevention, Partnership & Family Support strutcutal cgange is now spent, but PPFS will continue into the future & it will be "trauma-responsive", to use my phrase. #ppfs18
Dr Aisling Gillen of @tusla closes #PPFS18 workshop remarking: “I want to thank @norahgibbons Norah Gibbons personally and professionally. Her support has been vital to the success of the PPFS programme over recent years.” Also, pays tribute to Dr Fergal Lynch of the @DCYAPress👏
Poet/spoken word ball of spiritual, creative energy Stephen James Smith gives a splendid performance of "My Ireland", along w a moving, complex tribute to his mother. Dr Aisling Gillen closes #ppfs18 w a tender childhood memory abt the dramatic last line of a poem & her kind dad.
Big ask to respond to Stephen James Smith as #PPFS18 closes but Aisling Gillen nails it as she reflects on PPFS moving forward.
One caring adult can make all the difference.
#ppfs18 Amazing poet Stephen James Smith. Please have a look at Stephens website. He has a great book and available for working in communities through poetry. https://t.co/7QqWOqzGVu
