Impact on Children
Info: Participants will learn about the ways children may respond to violence in the home, including age- and developmentally appropriate signs of distress. The training will also examine the importance of trauma-informed responses by GALs, protective factors, and supportive interventions that can help children build resilience and experience greater safety and stability.
Post-Separation and Parental Alienation
