This webinar will provide participants with a deep understanding of key crisis management strategies for foster and adopted children, including de-escalation techniques, risk assessment, and the safe management of aggressive or self-harming behaviors. The speaker will emphasize the significance of a child's trauma history, guiding professionals and families in responding with compassion while ensuring immediate safety.
