Vulnerable children stand to gain from new online courses targeting abuse-related trauma.
A new series of online training courses focused on transforming the lives of children who have experienced child abuse and neglect will support Western Australian (WA) frontline practitioners to deliver world-leading responses to abuse-related trauma.
The Pursuit of Excellence in Responding to Child Abuse and Neglect WA, a leading initiative in partnership between the Australian Centre for Child Protection (ACCP), University of South Australia and Parkerville Children and Youth Care, and supported by Lotterywest, is focused on the development of new high quality therapeutic responses to child abuse and neglect, designed for the WA service context and client populations.
