SUMMARY:Kinship Live Virtual Webinar Training- “Education Series: Who Can Help Me At My School? Who Does What And How Can It Help Our Family?”
DESCRIPTION:School can be a confusing\, frightening\, and overwhelming place for many children. For Kinship children\, it can be even more intimidating.  Relating to other children\, making relationships\, being academic successful\, can be difficult for many kinship children.  Do I tell them I’m living with my grandma? What if they ask where my mom and dad are?  I don’t have the same type of clothes the other kids have-what if they make fun of me? What if I need help? Who can I trust for help? Whether they say it or not\, these are just some of the questions kids have when heading off to school. \nJoin us on August 22 as we learn about the Family Resource and Youth Service Center (FRYSC) and the help they can provide children and their families.  Many don’t realize the wide range of supports that FRYSC agents provide to families and how they can support children. FRYSC agents can make all the difference in helping a child be successful. Learn how they can help your family! \nAbout the Trainer: \nMelissa Goins serves as the Division Director for Kentucky’s Family Resource and Youth Services Centers (FRYSC) located in most Kentucky Schools.  Funded through the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services\, the primary goal of these centers is to remove nonacademic barriers to learning as a means to enhance student academic success. \nMs. Goins began her career working in the juvenile court system as a front-line worker\, trainer\, and field supervisor for a statewide diversion program. Prior to her position as Director of FRYSC she served as the Family Services Manager for the Kentucky Administrative Office of the Courts where she oversaw the state’s Court Improvement Project and worked collaboratively with Kentucky’s child protection agency to improve outcomes and permanency for kids in care. \nMs. Goins is a member of the State Interagency Council\, The Kentucky Board of Education Health Subcommittee\, and the Kentucky Partnership for Families and Children Board of Directors.  Ms. Goins received a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology and Communications from Georgetown College and a Master’s Degree in Social Work from the University of Kentucky. \nPlease note: Although this LIVE webinar is designed to be an informative\, educational\, and helpful resource for kinship families caring for relative or fictive kin children\, anyone is welcome to attend including foster parents\, professionals\, students\, or community members. \nIt is our hope that by participating in this LIVE webinar\, attendees will receive educational and helpful information. However\, it is important to note that this webinar is not approved for foster parent training credit or CEU’s as attendance is not monitored during the webinar event. \nREGISTER NOW

SUMMARY:Parenting Youth Who Have Experienced Trauma
DESCRIPTION:CORE TEEN (Critical On-going Resource Family Education) \nSession 2 \nParenting Youth Who Have Experienced Trauma \nJAugust 23\, 2023 \n10:00 am – 12:00 pm EST \nVia Zoom \nStephanie Spires \n2 credit hours \nNavigating the teen years can be challenging. It is even more difficult for youth that have experienced trauma. The University of Kentucky Training Resource Centers\, in collaboration with DCBS\, will offer training to equip foster and adoptive parents to meet the needs of older youth who have moderate to serious emotional and behavioral health challenges. \nDuring this CORE (Critical On-going Resource Family Education) Teen Training session #2\, piloted by the Foster Parent Training Program at the UK College of Social Work\, parents will further explore how trauma affects a youth’s behaviors. \nThe experience of trauma often produces behaviors that often seem out of context and usually include anger\, mistrust\, or defiance. The experience of trauma can also impact school performance\, relationships\, and can result in delays in social skills and development. During this session\, participants will explore how the interactions and interventions used with youth who have experienced trauma are different than those used with youth who have not experienced trauma. Participants will: \n· Understand what traumatic events are and how they affect youth physically\, emotionally\, and psychologically. \n· Recognize emotions and behaviors in your child that are associated to a traumatic event. \n· Learn how triggers work and how to respond effectively to a traumatic response \n· Gain usable knowledge on how to parent traumatized youth and promote successful behaviors. \nAdaptive responses are those behaviors that a child or youth might develop in order to protect themselves when they feel unsafe. During this session\, parents will learn more about the impact of trauma and how to meet the behavioral needs of children who have experienced trauma. \nREGISTER NOW \nTo learn more about this program\, please feel free to contact Carla Jordan\, TRC Training Specialist\, at carla.jordan@uky.edu or 1-833-859-3278 (1-833-UKY-FAST). \nPlease note each session is approved for ongoing\, elective training credit for Kentucky Foster Parents. This program also meets the requirements for CarePlus Training. Basic & Advanced Foster Parents\, Fictive Kin Foster Parents\, Care Plus\, or Therapeutic Foster Parents can all take advantage of the opportunity to fulfill their training hours. A reliable internet connection and computer/smartphone with webcam are required.
