PCAIN 2024 Webinar Series – “More Than Words: The Emotional Maltreatment of Children”
February 9 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm
Topic: More Than Words: The Emotional Maltreatment of Children
Date: February 9, 2024
Time: 11:00am – 1:00 pm (Eastern Time)
Speaker: Andrew Campbell, Founder/CEO, Campbell Research & Consulting
Description of Webinar Topic: This presentation will discuss the specific threats of physical, psychological, and emotional harm for children living in a home where partner abuse/domestic violence occurs. Common misconceptions will be addressed, including the idea that a child can be too young to be affected by abuse in the home, physically observable signs of injury are an appropriate estimator of victimization, and the idea that children who do not actually see a violent act occur are not significantly harmed by it.
Other topics to be discussed include: the various forms of child emotional maltreatment, toxic stress, child-caregiver attachment, “emotionally unavailable parents”, the effects of witnessing threats or violence against animals living within the home, caregiver risk factors for domestic violence and emotional maltreatment, how to better identify victims, and what to do once victims have been identified.
Training Time: 2 Hour Training. A Training Certificate will be emailed to each attendee within 24 Business Hours after the Webinar.
