Melinda Lis Vice President of The Academy for Family Support and Preservation

QIC-EY NOW is sharing a new video featuring Melinda Lis, Vice President of The Academy for Family Support and Preservation, Spaulding for Children. Melinda is not only a Child Welfare professional, she also is an adoptive parent.

Seeing children and youth’s behaviors and actions in the context of child and adolescent development is key to meeting their needs. When child welfare professionals tailor their approach using this lens, they can respond in ways that validate and support children and youth at each life stage.

Melinda helps provide important context about how essential it is for professionals to understand the age and stage of the children and youth in order to build authentic connections and strong relationships.
