SUMMARY:Child Abuse and Neglect: Recognition\, Reporting & Supporting
DESCRIPTION:Professionals who work with children\, including childcare providers\, social workers\, nurses\, educators and others\, are mandated reporters and are required to make a report when they have a reason to suspect child abuse or neglect. This training addresses areas of risk and protective factors\, definitions and common indicators of child abuse including shaken baby syndrome\, and considerations for distinguishing poverty from neglect. Participants will also learn what to do in the event of a disclosure\, how to make a report\, what happens after a report is made\, and thinking through roles as not just a mandated reporter but also as a supporter of families and how we can support a family before a situation rises to the level of needing a hotline report.

SUMMARY:Preventing Infant Abuse with the Period of PURPLE Crying
DESCRIPTION:The Period of PURPLE Crying® is the phrase used to describe the peak time when babies cry more often. Infants who cry a lot or are awake and fussy at night are a source of concern for many parents. Because of the normal increase in crying that occurs in the first months of a baby’s life\, parents and caregivers usually have questions. Crying is the most frequently reported trigger for why a parent or caregiver would shake a baby. Early prevention education is the key to decreasing the incidence of shaken baby syndrome and infant abuse. The Period of PURPLE Crying® is an evidence-based shaken baby syndrome primary prevention program created by the National Center on Shaken Baby Syndrome. Learn about the Kansas strategy\, how PURPLE is being implemented in hospitals and agencies across the state\, how the program was selected and the research behind it. This training is geared toward those professionals who are working with families with new babies\, whether through childcare\, home visitation programs\, health departments\, clinics\, etc. This training is approved by KDHE for 1.0 child care licensing hours.

SUMMARY:Connections Matter
DESCRIPTION:Every day connections are more important than we ever believed. Science tells us that relationships have the power to shape our brains. Relationships help us learn better\, work better\, parent better. When we experience tough times\, relationships help us heal. With each connection\, we develop a healthier\, stronger community. Connections Matter is a training designed to engage community members in building caring connections to improve resiliency\, prevent childhood trauma\, and understand how our interactions with others can support those who have experienced trauma. Connections Matter explores how the connections we make in life profoundly impact our brain’s ability to grow and our own abilities to cope and thrive. This is done through a training curriculum that educates participants on adverse childhood experiences\, trauma\, brain development and resilience. Connections Matter ultimately strives to promote the building of more resilient\, compassionate\, and trauma-informed communities – thus allowing all children and individuals to succeed. This training is pre-approved for 2.0 KDHE child care licensing hours. \nCEUs: This training is approved by KDHE for child care licensing hours. BSRB approved. \n  \nRegister Here.

SUMMARY:Connections Matter
DESCRIPTION:Every day connections are more important than we ever believed. Science tells us that relationships have the power to shape our brains. Relationships help us learn better\, work better\, parent better. When we experience tough times\, relationships help us heal. With each connection\, we develop a healthier\, stronger community. Connections Matter is a training designed to engage community members in building caring connections to improve resiliency\, prevent childhood trauma\, and understand how our interactions with others can support those who have experienced trauma. Connections Matter explores how the connections we make in life profoundly impact our brain’s ability to grow and our own abilities to cope and thrive. This is done through a training curriculum that educates participants on adverse childhood experiences\, trauma\, brain development and resilience. Connections Matter ultimately strives to promote the building of more resilient\, compassionate\, and trauma-informed communities – thus allowing all children and individuals to succeed. This training is pre-approved for 2.0 KDHE child care licensing hours. \nCEUs: This training is approved by KDHE for child care licensing hours. BSRB approved. \n  \nRegister Here.
