Class Description:

Training Summary: Provide a couple sentences summary (content themes/training techniques, and how this training is relevant to working with children who live in out of home care)

This training will be reviewing the risk of trauma for Latine immigrant families who may be at risk of deportations due to their status in the United States which includes attachment trauma due to forced family separations. Considering the current political climate in which policies are being enforced that are negatively impacting the undocumented community, including those in the Latine community, the presentation will discuss how this current political climate is further compounding the trauma related to immigration that is already present for this community, such as trauma they may have experienced on their journey to the U.S. as well as trauma that forced them to flee their countries of origin. In addition to reviewing strategies on how to continue to support families and youth negatively impacted by immigration trauma, this training will also review the resilience that has existed in this community for several generations and participants will identify strategies on how to build and uplift this resilience.

 

Class Objectives: (what knowledge, ideas or skills will participants explore, learn, practice, etc. during the training) Provide at least 3 class objectives.

1)     Participants will review 3 layers of immigration trauma often experienced by immigrant Latine families and system involved youth

2)     Participants will review 3 strategies on how to support the Latine youth impacted by immigration trauma.

3)     Participants will review five protective and resilience factors that are typically found and experienced within the immigrant Latine community.

 

How can participants utilize their new skills and knowledge after the training to reinforce their learning? (provide at least 2 transfer of learning strategies)

 

1.      Participants will apply concepts learned to their service delivery, including engagement, assessment or information gathering, and service planning.

2.      Participants will apply concepts and skills learned in the training by integrating them to consultation in supervision and other meeting spaces.

3.      Participants will learn and engage in steps in social advocacy to support marginalized communities through service delivery and other means, if interested.
