Course Description: This professional growth training provides professionals with information on how to recognize signs and symptoms of suspected abuse, understand child abuse definitions, identify indicators of child abuse, responding to, and reporting a disclosure. There are several types of child abuse, but the core element that ties them together is the emotional effect on the child. Children need predictability, structure, clear boundaries, and the knowledge that their caregivers are looking out for their safety. Abused children cannot predict how their caregivers will act. Their world is an unpredictable, frightening place with no rules. Whether the abuse is a slap, a harsh comment, silence, or not knowing if there will be dinner on the table, a child who feels unsafe, uncared for, and alone is considered abused. Understand how to recognize signs and symptoms of abuse, indicators of child abuse, responding to, and reporting a disclosure.
