This comprehensive training program is designed to reduce the incidence of child abuse and family violence by providing training to raise awareness and promote early identification and effective intervention.

Topics covered include:

• defining and identifying child abuse;
• legal and moral responsibilities with respect to reporting suspicions of child abuse and children exposed to family violence;
• responding to disclosures;
• how to report suspicions of child abuse, including strategies that assist in overcoming fears of reporting;
• how to document suspicions of abuse;
• the system’s response; and
• how to maintain the client relationship when a report to child protection authorities has been made.

The information and discussion shared in the workshop supports agencies in developing proactive policies and procedures for responding to children and families when abuse and violence are suspected.

Boost offers workshops that range from 2 hours to 2 days, as well as a train-the-trainer program. To find out how to bring the training to your organization or community, contact us at info@boostforkids.org
