Join us in congratulating Heather Rosenthal and Mark Wilhelmson, who are the recipients of our first (soon to be) annual Child Welfare Exemplary Service Award. The Child Welfare Exemplary Service Award was developed in early 2015 by the Center for Advanced Studies in Child Welfare (CASCW) in order to recognize Minnesota child welfare supervisors and front-line workers in public, tribal, and private child-serving agencies for exemplary service to children and families.
In order to be considered for the award, individuals must be nominated and meet certain criteria. Heather and Mark were both nominated for this award by their colleagues, and they fulfill our nomination requirements of demonstrating a commitment to engaging families, engaging in strengths-based work with families, focusing on reducing disparities in the child welfare system, and utilizing research-supported practice.
Congratulations Heather and Mark!
