This training is designed to give school and childcare personnel, along with medical, mental health and other therapeutic providers the tools needed to optimally respond when a child discloses or indicates that he or she may be a victim of sexual and/or physical abuse.

Learning Objectives:

  • Ensure best practice response in child abuse cases

  • Enhanced knowledge and skills necessary to successfully respond to child abuse allegations

  • Increased comfort-ability with handing disclosures from children
