Overview: Supporting children who have experienced trauma is difficult work. Added to the complexity of treatment is the assessment of progress, especially in young children or when the trauma is challenging to articulate.

Join us for an accessible approach to assessing treatment progress in children who have experienced trauma. The discussion will include typical delays from trauma, at various ages.
