Finding Common Ground on Child Psychological Maltreatment

for California CACs

Join CAPSAC, the Psychological Maltreatment Alliance (PMA), The New York Foundling, CATTA, and a panel of national experts to discuss the emerging consensus on child psychological maltreatment and its implications for Children's Advocacy Centers and multi-disciplinary teams. Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions and develop a plan to help them serve children experiencing psychological maltreatment.

I already registered. What now?

By the end of this training participants will be able to:

Analyze and apply two current definitions of child psychological maltreatment
Practice discriminating between poor/inadequate parenting and CPM
Apply “upstander” behavior to formulate “soft start-up” engagement
Plan three action steps to improve their agency’s response to child psychological maltreatment

Led by:

Marla Brassard (Columbia University)
Stuart Hart (International Institute for Child Rights and Development)
Helen Wyman (Violence Intervention Program)
