A child’s participation in the development of an action plan

In the CFRP framework, strategies for facilitating recovery include empowering children by involving them in their own action plans. A child’s participation in developing an action plan increases their locus of control, fostering a sense of agency and responsibility for their recovery. The CFRP study guide states, “Involving children in the development of their action plans increases their locus of control, empowering them to take an active role in their recovery process.” While participation may also teach social skills (option B) or reinforce resiliency (option D), these are secondary benefits. Ensuring positive outcomes (option C) is not guaranteed by participation alone, as outcomes depend on multiple factors.
