Responsive Child Welfare Practice with LGBTQIA2S+ Youth (CWTA X210)

The goal of this training is to introduce best practices when working with lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and trans, queer and questioning, intersex, asexual or agender, and two-spirit (LGBTQIA2S+) youth. LGBTQIA2S+ youth are over-represented in child welfare systems and have been subjected to historical discrimination and oppression contributing to vulnerability and challenges. This training is intended to increase the awareness, knowledge, skills and abilities of social workers and supervisors to work effectively with this unique population through self-reflection, data, resource sharing, and interactive activities. 6.0 CEUs.
