Know Your Audience
This document aims to help trainers connect with a very specific group: foster, adoptive and kinship families who are caring for children exposed to domestic violence.
This presentation-ready guide gives facilitators the script, tools and tips necessary to educate caregivers of children exposed to domestic violence. It packages three hours of training into a thoughtful, comprehensive and no-frills instructional playbook that explores what domestic violence is, how it impacts children and exactly what caregivers can do to help this fragile population heal.
The topic is sobering. The impact on children heartbreaking. But this training guide delivers a strong message of hope for caregivers. It reminds readers that one loving and supportive adult can make all the difference in the life of a child who is still hurting from domestic violence exposure.
