About this disability events

Children with disabilities are at a higher risk of child sexual abuse than their peers, but prevention is possible! Parents and professionals alike want to create safe environments for this important group of children. Participants will: a) understand the higher prevalence of child sexual abuse among children with disabilities b) learn the specific challenges that these children experience that may raise risk c) strategize organizational policies and practices as well as family norms that will better protect this vulnerable group of children. Please join us in this handicap events to learn how to keep children with disabilities safe at school, at home, in youth serving organizations, in residential settings, and in the neighborhood. This training is useful for educators, special education teachers, paraprofessionals, social workers, health care professionals, home health providers, residential care staff, mentors, volunteers for children, coaches, parents, caregivers, grandparents, and foster parents.

* 2 Continuing Education Credits are available for Vermont Social Workers, Vermont Allied Mental Health Professionals, Vermont Behavior Analysts, Vermont Psychoanalysts, Vermont Psychological Examiners, and Vermont Alcohol & Drug Abuse Counselors.
