    Multi-Agency Half-Day Webinar - Thursday 10th September

    About this event

    The Violence Reduction Network (VRN) is pleased to offer free training to partner organisations interested in increasing their understanding of ACEs and developing trauma-informed approaches.

    Children who are routinely exposed to situations such as domestic violence, mental ill health, alcohol and other substance misuse problems in their homes experience a negative impact which can last well into adulthood. These chronic stress situations are called Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and are often associated with poorer outcomes for children in educational attainment, employment, involvement in crime, family breakdown, and a range of health and wellbeing outcomes. The impact of ACEs can continue throughout adult life. It is important that anyone working with children and adults who have experienced childhood trauma understand about ACEs, how that can affect children and adults across the life-course and the importance of being trauma-informed. This has been proven to have a positive impact on engagement and outcomes for children, adults and the communities in which we live and work.

    The training is aimed at practitioners and managers in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland who are working directly with children, young people and adults across different sectors including health, education, early help and social care, youth services, police and other criminal justice agencies and voluntary sector organisations.

    At the end of the training, participants would have achieved the following learning outcomes:

     Understand the potential impact of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and other potentially traumatising life events across the life course

     Have increased knowledge about why it is important to consider ACES and adopt trauma-informed practice

     Generate ideas about how this knowledge can assist you in your role, team and/or service

    Please note: You will need to book a place on this training via the Eventbrite links provided. This training is now being delivered by the training provider via Zoom Pro. You will therefore need to be able to access Zoom to participate in these events. The link and password for the event will be sent for your exclusive use prior to the event on which you have secured a place.

    About the Trainers

    The training is being delivered by Warren Larkin Associates (WLA). WLA helps caring organisations and governments to transform population health and to achieve sustainable, evidence-based and prevention-focused results from an ACE informed perspective. We do this by supporting the design and delivery of trauma-informed services and trauma-sensitive schools and by training professionals to skilfully ask people seeking help about their past experiences contribute to their current difficulties. www.warrenlarkinassociates.co.uk
