It is even more difficult for youth that have experienced trauma. The University of Kentucky 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. \nThere are many reasons that foster and adoptive youth display challenging behaviors. For some youth\, living in a family and accepting parental guidance and support is exceedingly difficult. Behaviors that have been useful in the past for survival and self-protection\, can become instinctive\, automatic reactions. Intellectual and developmental disabilities as well as dealing with grief are also contributing factors for challenging behaviors.

By the end of the session parents will: \n\nLearn and demonstrate skills needed to assist their youth during a crisis situation.\nParents will learn how to respond appropriately when teens display high-risk behaviors like:\n\nRisky sexual behaviors\nAggressive behaviors towards others\nUsing the internet and social media appropriately\nSelf-injurious behaviors and suicidal ideation\n\n\nParents will learn strategies to keep their youth and others safe.\nParents will learn crisis intervention and de-escalation techniques.\nLearn how to access and be actively involved in professional supports that their foster/adoptive youth may need to access.\n\nThis session will teach foster/adoptive parents learn skills needed to address\, intense\, frequent\, or long-lasting high-risk behaviors that they threaten the quality of life and/or the physical safety of the teen or others. For additional information about this session\, please feel free to contact Carla Jordan\, TRC Training Specialist\, at carla.jordan@uky.edu or 1-833-859-3278 (1-833-UKY-FAST). \nREGISTER NOW \nPlease note each session is approved for ongoing\, elective training credit for Kentucky Foster Parents.
