Description

High turnover in child welfare has been called a “national crisis,” with many leaving the industry because training did not prepare them for reality of the difficult work. Using state-of the-art virtual reality trainings based on real case scenarios, Accenture, an information technology services company, provides realistic training opportunities to better prepare child welfare professionals to work with families in need. In this episode of Season 5, hear from Accenture’s Child Welfare Industry Lead, Molly Tierney, on the inner workings of these innovations, as well as Kellee Hicks’s firsthand experience with the software utilized in Mecklenburg County.
