Learn the detrimental impact of how multiple traumatic experiences impact a youth's ability to attach to other caregivers. Participants will learn how "The Cycle of Need" impacts attachment and how to successfully attach with your child

The first part of the class will focus on defining attachment as it relates to youth in out of home care and how various traumatic events impact a child's ability to attach. The second part will help you identify intervention strategies focused on how to build attachment with a child in your care.
