Description:

This NYSED-approved workshop, tailored for New York State professionals, addresses recent amendments to Social Services Law §413. It fulfills state requirements for mandated reporters of child abuse and maltreatment, emphasizing the importance of timely reporting to the State Central Register (SCR) when harm to a child is suspected. Additionally, the course highlights and  recognizes situations where community-based services may better serve families, guiding decision-making with a commitment to reduce biases. Understand the impact of trauma and Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) is crucial for comprehensive assessment, and this course explores protective factors, such as parental resilience and social support networks, to mitigate the risk of abuse or maltreatment.

Learn:

• to determine if a child shows indicators of maltreatment or abuse, including in a virtual setting
• to recognize the impact of trauma and ACEs on children, families, and yourself
• to recognize the impact of bias on your decision-making
• to understand when you have a legal obligation to call the SCR
