Victim Advocacy Training

Victim advocates in child advocacy centers support children and families by providing crisis intervention, information about the investigation and criminal justice process, and ongoing assistance in connecting families to helpful resources. This webinar, sponsored by the National Children’s Advocacy Center, will include sessions on understanding the criminal justice system, the dynamics of child abuse, crisis development and resolution, effective listening techniques, the impact of trauma on a child, the rights of crime victims, cultural considerations, and intervention strategies.
