As part of making sense of our social world, we all test the people around us. If we grow up in stable and nurturing environment, we learn to successfully negotiate in the world. For those who have experience abuse and neglect, the lack of stability, safety, nurturing and healthy boundaries often leads to emotional and behavioral problems. People who work with or care for these youth benefit from identify the types of tests abused and neglected youth present and knowing how to pass these test and support the youth in healing and learning to function in the world.

In this class we will identify types of test and discuss ways to “pass” these tests. This class is useful for anyone working with system involved youth including child welfare workers, educators, psychotherapist, parents and caregivers.
