This training equips care managers with a clear understanding of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and how they differ from trauma. It also explores the lasting impacts of childhood adversity on the brain, behavior, and long-term health outcomes.
Participants will build practical skills for explaining ACEs and trauma sensitively and effectively during comprehensive care management assessments. The training emphasizes self-care strategies to help care managers protect their own mental health and reduce the risk of vicarious trauma during difficult disclosures.
Finally, care managers will learn practical, strengths-based strategies to help families build resilience, increase stability, and better support children with complex needs. Participants will explore collaborative, family-first approaches that transform crisis response and promote safety, dignity, and long-term success.
