Caring for the Traumatized Child
This 2 part workshop will be suitable for Foster Parents, Adoptive Parents, Social Workers, Community Professionals and others who have an interest in helping support children who have been through trauma.
Andrea Chatwin from 'A Child's Song', Adoption support agency in Vancouver is our guest speaker.
Caring for the Traumatized Child This workshop is designed for Foster Parents, Adoptive parents and Community Professionals. All children who have been abused, neglected, witnessed violence or have had multiple caregivers have experienced some degree of trauma. These experiences can interfere with the typical course of development for children. This workshop will offer insight, and practical strategies, to increase caregivers confidence in meeting the needs of the children.
Strategies for Building Trust and Connection Children with early histories of trauma and attachment disruptions are chronically dysregulated and this makes them difficult to understand. Caregivers and professionals need strategies that will calm the nervous system of the child and make it possible to build trust and connection.
