One of the most significant challenges for those supporting system involved youth (SIY) with Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD) is to effectively teach them to advocate successfully for themselves while building diplomatic alliances with those they are in relationship with that are sustainable and lead to healthy relationships and overall improved outcomes. In this training, we will explore how to enhance our capacity to support system involved youth by examining how to Teach Assertive Communication Skills to SIY with CPTSD and support healing of their Attachment Styles with others and strengthening of their ability to heal from traumatic events so that they can lead a meaningful life. Practicing and sharing the methods outlined by this workshop will allow us to improve the practice of how we empower system-involved youth.
