SUMMARY:Preventing emotional abuse of children: The role of parenting support
DESCRIPTION:Presenters: Associate Professor Divna Haslam\, Associate Professor Alina Morawska and Rani Kumar \nDate & time: Wednesday 18 December 2024\, 1:00 – 2:00PM (AEDT). Find your time zone. \nPartner: NAPCAN \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar\, produced in partnership with the National Association for Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect (NAPCAN)\, previously aired in 2023 as part of National Child Protection Week. It explores emotional abuse in childhood and the role of parenting support in reducing and preventing child maltreatment. \nIn the webinar\, Associate Professor Divna Haslam and Associate Professor Alina Morawska sat down with the then Deputy CEO of NAPCAN\, Rani Kumar\, to discuss findings from the Australian Child Maltreatment Study. The study found that approximately 35% of young people aged 16-24 years had previously experienced emotional abuse\, with the rate 1.5 times higher among girls than boys. \nEmotional abuse contributes to a range of physical\, social and psychological problems\, and despite its high prevalence\, this form of abuse is poorly understood compared to other forms of child maltreatment and is often overlooked in practice settings. \nEmotional abuse occurs at the hands of parents and primary caregivers and can overlap with other unhelpful forms of parenting. This makes the family environment key for the prevention of emotional abuse in childhood. Parenting programs have been shown to reduce risk factors and enhance protective factors associated with child maltreatment. \nThis webinar will help you: \n\nunderstand the nature\, prevalence and impact of emotional abuse in childhood\nidentify the family-related risk and protective factors associated with early adversity and child maltreatment\nconsider the role of parenting support in preventing and reducing emotional abuse in childhood\nstart conversations about emotional abuse with parents and children and assess the impact the abuse is having.\n\nThis webinar will interest practitioners working in child and family services\, child protection\, family law\, parenting and relationship services\, health and education. \nAs this is a re-broadcast there will be no live Q&A. \nREGISTER

SUMMARY:Queering sex & content
DESCRIPTION:A skills-based workshop presented by Zoe Belle Gender Collective & Rainbow Network \n\n\n\nVENUE: Melbourne\, TBA upon registration\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nAll young people need access to relevant and age-appropriate information about sex\, consent and healthy relationships.\nResearch indicates that many educators\, healthcare workers and youth workers feel ill-equipped or lack confidence in discussing topics of sex\, consent and healthy relationships with young people.

SUMMARY:Responding to Children and Young People Impacted by Trauma - free workshop
DESCRIPTION:This is a free workshop presented by UMFC for all community members\, teachers and volunteers working with children and young people. \nThe workshop will cover the following topics- \nImpact of Trauma on Children and Young People’s Behaviours \nChildren and young people in our communities are often labelled as violent\, naughty\, intimidating\, bullying\, withdrawn\, or angry. On the surface\, these behaviours can appear to be choices and are frequently met with punitive responses. However\, these behaviours often stem from underlying trauma and hurt. \nHow to Respond to Trauma Behaviours \nThis workshop will explore the root causes of these behaviours and provide guidance on how to identify and respond to them in a supportive and inclusive manner. By understanding the impact of trauma\, we can ensure that all children and young people have the opportunity to interact and participate fully in classrooms\, sports\, and community groups. \nJoin us to learn how to create a more compassionate and inclusive environment for every child and young person. \n  \nLocation: Rutherglen High School Library\, 40 Sheridans Bridge Rd\, Rutherglen \nLight supper provided. \nRESERVE A SPOT
