Seminar Details
Each of the Adventures in Caring Foundation’s volunteer
programs begins with a
hands-on training seminar. The goal of the seminar is to
give volunteers the
experience, information and skills they need to begin active
service as
“Ambassadors of Goodwill” in the guise of Raggedy
Ann and Andy.
Interacting with people who are critically or chronically
ill, in a way that is warm,
supportive and meaningful, is a rare talent. Yet it is a
skill that Raggedy Ann &
Andy volunteers develop. "Therapeutic Listening Care"
(TLC) is the method of
communication which all Raggedy Ann & Andy volunteers
learn.
"Therapeutic Listening Care"
was developed and refined by Karen Fox, the founder of Adventures
in Caring Foundation.
