Foster Care Training

This introductory training is designed to equip caregivers working with youth, particularly those involved in the child welfare and probation systems, with critical knowledge and practical tools to prevent human trafficking. Participants will explore the definition and scope of human trafficking, including California-specific trends, and understand its profound impact on youth, families and communities. The training delves into how historical trauma, adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and environmental factors increase vulnerability, particularly among system-involved youth and families. Using trauma-informed and culturally responsive approaches, caregivers will learn to identify red flags, strengthen protective factors and implement prevention strategies at individual, family and community levels. The material will be delivered by PowerPoint presentation, short video clips, group discussion, breakout (small group) discussions and participant workbook (handout).
