PCAK – Recognizing, Reporting, and Preventing Child Abuse and Neglect

Prevent Child Abuse Kentucky values the role every citizen plays in the prevention of child abuse. PCAK has designed curricula to address current trends and best practice for the prevention of child maltreatment.
Through lecture, video, injury identification and group work, attendees are prepared to recognize, report, and prevent child abuse and neglect within their role as child and/or family-serving professionals. This workshop reviews Kentucky mandated reporting laws, definitions of abuse and neglect, what to expect after a report has been made to the authorities and outlines specific action steps which prevent child maltreatment.
This is a free Continuing Education opportunity for 1.5 credits.
