Foster Care Training

This training focuses on highlighting some of the many complexities of sexual abuse and trauma. Information will be presented on sexual abuse and the traumatic impact on children and adolescents. Training participants will then more closely examine the impact of sexual abuse and trauma while engaging in an interactive presentation and discussion about the connection between sexual abuse and sexual exploitation, reproductive health issues, and the pipeline to prison. Guidelines for working with youth who have experienced sexual abuse will also be presented and discussed.
