Victim Advocacy 101:
Working with Child Victims and Witnesses

Huntsville, AL

July 24 - 26, 2006 - CLASS FULL

The criminal justice system was designed for adults and can be confusing and frightening for children. Children and their families involved in an investigation of child abuse often have a host of concerns and needs. Victim advocates are uniquely positioned to provide information and support to children and families throughout the process. This training will concentrate on the knowledge, attitudes, and skills needed to successfully do this important job. This training is specifically designed for victim advocates who have responsibility for providing support to victims of child abuse.

This training will be held in Huntsville, AL at the National Children's Advocacy Center's Training Center. Linda Cordisco Steele, Senior Trainer for NCAC, will be the lead faculty for this training session. CEUs will be available. More about CEUs
