Beyond Crazy Thinking ... How to Effectively Respond to Abuse Cases Involving Children with Disabilities (Workshop 79)
Children with disabilities represent an important population, a "subset," in the United States, yet problems persist in terms of negative attitudes toward them, a lack of interest in addressing their needs, and a paucity of experts or experienced personnel to effectively and sensitively provide intervention and support. This workshop offers instruction in developing a solid information and skills base for working with children with disabilities and their families as a prerequisite to excellence in service delivery. The discussion includes information on how any community can develop effective intervention strategies.
