Putting Trauma Informed Care Into Action
Archived Webinar (Original Date: April 3, 2019)
Presented by Erin Watkins, CYW; Tom Ketelaars, CYW & Program Support Manager; Ben Hoogenboom, CYW
Trauma-informed care is a popular topic, however it can be a challenge to find training that discusses the real "how tos" of practical implementation. In this archived webinar, CPRI team members will take questions and discuss the "nitty gritty" of implementing trauma-informed care.
This webinar will build on discussion covered in the 2018 radio-style format providing insight from different areas of intervention (management, child- and caregiver-focused) titled "How Clinical Workers and Managers Use this Trauma-Informed Stuff".
Attendees are also encouraged to prepare by viewing archived webinars on trauma-informed care.

How Clinical Workers and Managers Use This Trauma-Informed Stuff
Archived Webinar (Original Date: March 28th, 2018)
Presented by Tom Ketelaars, Program Support Manager, CYW, Lynn Donoghue, BSW BA RSW & Erin Watkins, DSW
Webinar Objectives:In the field of Children’s Mental Health we often find ourselves facing news terms or statements that seem to jump into the lexicon of North Americans. We then find ourselves trying to figure out what does it mean to us, to the clients we work with, and to the world of “best practices”. One of these terms is “Trauma-Informed Care”. Over the past three years, CPRI has developed webinars related to this very term, including discussions on best practices in attachment, residential trauma-informed approaches, “what is trauma informed care”, and how your organization can begin thinking about “becoming trauma-informed”. This webinar is aimed at bringing it all together and applying it “real time.”
Looking Beneath Behaviour: Early Relational Trauma & Attachment Disturbance Intervention

Individuals who present with early negative life events may have learned not to seek support and comfort from their caregivers. Instead, they may be more likely to “go it alone,” resulting in difficult to manage behaviour. This webinar discusses how to respond to challenging behaviour utilizing an attachment/trauma lens.
