ForwardCaring for Children Who Have Experienced Trauma - Module 3: Understanding Trauma's Effects
In this NCTSN workshop, resource parents such as foster parents and adoptive parents and those that serve them will learn what trauma is, how trauma may impact children, and how behaviors are often symptoms of those experiences. This workshop provides information on how to create a safe place, how to become an advocate for trauma-specific services, and how to recognize and help prevent compassion fatigue (The National Child Traumatic Stress Network, n.d.). This workshop is divided into seven parts covering eight modules, with this training covering module three.
