Effective Approaches to Addressing Aggressive Behaviours (A free webinar for the healthcare sector) [Waitlist]

This webinar is now full. Please join our waitlist to stay tuned to our next webinar for the healthcare sector in 2024.

 

A free webinar for the Healthcare Sector 

Are you a physician, nurse or other healthcare service provider supporting families that may be experiencing aggressive behaviours by their child(ren) and youth? A national consultation highlighted an urgent need for these families to access professionals and service providers who understand Aggression towards Family/Caregivers in Childhood & Adolescence (AFCCA) and who can be part of a larger circle of support. 
 
Please join Adopt4Life’s AFCCA Family Supports Program Team for a FREE webinar where you will learn evidence-based strategies and practice-informed approaches to help build capacity within families, including safety within the home and health care settings. This training is designed and tailored to address the issues and needs of the healthcare sector. 

When: November 22, 2023 1:00 to 2:30 pm EST * 

Presenters: Maude Champagne and Tanya Eichler

Learning outcomes for these webinars include:  

  • Develop your understanding of aggression toward parents / caregivers during childhood and adolescence. 

  • Strengthen your skill set in identifying and addressing the needs of vulnerable families. 

  • Gain understanding of the relationship between neurodevelopmental disabilities (FASD, ASD, ADHD, etc.), trauma and aggressive behaviours. 

  • Learn evidence-based strategies and practice-informed approaches to help build capacity within families and safety within the home. 

AFCCA refers to Aggression towards Family/Caregivers in Childhood & Adolescence. AFCCA can be a difficult subject to talk about and families often share they feel shame, stigma, and isolation when they do seek help. Everyone involved—including the young person themselves—is at risk of physical and/or psychological harm, as well as family instability and possible breakdown.
