• Enhance their knowledge of child development, memory and trauma, disclosure dynamics and the Child Advocacy Center (CAC) model in the state of Oregon.
• Identify question types used when talking with children, learn strategies designed to reduce trauma, and be more prepared to deploy questions in a legally sound, developmentally-appropriate and defensible manner.
• Understand MDT professional roles and responsibilities and how to best work together to provide collaborative child abuse response throughout the life of a case.
