What Daniel Tiger Reminded Me About Working in Housing and Homeless Services
Description

In the often fast-paced, emotionally demanding world of housing and homeless services, it’s easy to forget the basics: kindness, empathy, boundaries, and caring for ourselves and each other. In this joyful and restorative session, we’ll turn to an unlikely but wise teacher—Daniel Tiger from the PBS series Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood—to guide us back to what matters.

Using beloved songs and messages from the show (a modern-day spin-off of Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood), we’ll explore powerful reminders about what to do when something is new, mistakes, and gratitude. Whether it's “Let Your Light Twinkle!” “When We Do Something New, Let's Talk About What We'll Do,” or Take a Step Back and Ask for Help,” these simple tunes hold deep wisdom for those doing complex, heart-centered work.

🎶 Yes, there will be music, you might sing, and it will be fun.
But more importantly, this session is an act of self-care—a space to laugh, reflect, reconnect with your values, and refill your emotional cup.

Perfect for case managers, supervisors, direct service staff, and anyone who could use a little gentleness in a field that often demands so much.

Leave with:

A renewed sense of purpose

Practical reminders to keep you grounded and compassionate

A few songs stuck in your head—for all the right reasons.

🧸 Come as you are. We’ll be glad you did.
