Trainings

CARRE and the NCTSN Child Traumatic Grief/Traumatic Separation Committee invite you to a webinar on the impact of unconfirmed death on forcibly displaced children and families in the U.S. This webinar covers the background of forced displacement for children and families in the U.S., including trauma in the context of forced displacement; coping with unconfirmed death and loss for various forcibly displaced communities; and the adaptation and development of “Coping with Unconfirmed Death for Forcibly Displaced Children and Families: Tips for Caregivers”, a new NCTSN resource.

The Center for Adjustment, Resilience, and Recovery (CARRE), IRC’s Anti-Trafficking Team and Framework are pleased to announce a webinar on Child Labor Trafficking 101. This webinar is about understanding and responding to labor trafficking among children and youth who have experienced forced displacement. Participants will gain information, knowledge, and facilitation insight to help them share this training with others in their organizations and communities.

This webinar will serve as an introduction to the Safety & Wellness Benchmarks Case Management Measurement and Assessment Tool and will focus on the components of the tool, ways to use the tool in case management programs, and strategies and skills to analyze and utilize the data in program improvement, development, and reporting.

In Part 2 of this series, participants will explore cultural and trauma informed integration practices for serving children and families from Afghanistan. Presenters include NCTSN providers and partners from Las Cumbres Community Services, University of Illinois Chicago, and Boston College.

Over 70,000 people from Afghanistan have arrived in the U.S. since August 2021. Part 1 of this two-part series helps participants better understand the initial U.S. response, including the systems and processes that may have short- and long-term impacts on children and families. Presenters include Gul Hussain Shinwari, Senior Program Officer for the Afghan Placement and Assistance Program, Beth Farmer, Director of the Safety, Education and Wellness Technical Unit at the IRC, and Jess Dalpe, IRC Senior Technical Advisor for Safety and Wellness.
