CORE Teen: Understanding and Managing Youth’s Challenging Behaviors – Part 1
CORE Teen: Understanding and Managing Youth’s Challenging Behaviors – Part 1
The session will focus on survival strategies that are now recognized as dysfunctional within a family unit. Rejection, testing, disrespect, anger, and withdrawal can be particularly challenging for parents who discover that their previous parenting strategies are ineffective when dealing with a teenager who has experienced trauma and loss.

Strangers Under Your Roof
Strangers Under Your Roof
This training explores the impact that occurs when a family introduces a foster or adoptive child into their home. Family dynamics undergo significant changes, priorities shift, and social activities are transformed as a result of incorporating a new person into an existing family structure. Unmet expectations often cause angst for all family members. Parents will learn about the predictable developmental stages of resource families and how the unit can progress towards mobilization in the pursuit of a new and more fulfilling family reality.
