You Are a Trusted Adult

This is a great training for any adult working with children who has a basic understanding of child sexual abuse. This session covers the disclosure process, how kids tell at different ages, and evaluating and responding to sexual behaviors between children. Participants will have a chance to hear practical examples of how to question & respond to children.
