Learn to equip your colleagues so mental health services promote healing for children and young people traumatized by violence. The American Psychological Association (APA) recently launched a new initiative, Effective Providers for Child Victims of Violence. APA is a UNITY partner, and its Effective Providers program promotes an integrated, multi-disciplinary and culturally-sensitive treatment approach centered on the family. Participate in one of three free trainings on evidence-based treatment programs and validated trauma assessment tools, and earn continuing education credits:
- February 3 & 4 at the Childhelp Children's Center in Phoenix
- February 10 & 11 at APA Headquarters in Washington, D.C.
- March 16 & 17 at Argosy University in Chicago
