SUMMARY:Webinar: Trauma prevention and early intervention approaches with children and young people | Emerging Minds & AIFS
DESCRIPTION:The Australian Child Maltreatment Study (ACMS) reinforced what many in the child and family sector had long suspected – most children and young people (62%) experience at least one form of abuse or neglect before the age of 18.

This webinar will outline strategies that practitioners\, organisations and systems can use to contribute to trauma prevention and early intervention. It will help you: \n\nnavigate preventative and early intervention conversations with children and young people\nsupport children and young people’s safety in your practice and embed this principle across organisations and systems\ndevelop your ability to support children\, young people and parents to describe experiences of abuse and neglect and support them in early recovery.\n\nFacilitated by Dan Moss (Practice Development Manager\, Emerging Minds) the expert panel includes: \n\nProfessor Daryl Higgins (key ACMS researcher)\nShankari Sundaram (counsellor at rebuild – Relationships Australia South Australia).\n\nFind out more about the webinar topic and presenters on the Australian Institute of Family Studies (AIFS) website. \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Webinar: Centering children when supporting Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander families | AIFS
DESCRIPTION:Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children are overrepresented in nearly all statutory services including child protection\, out-of-home care and the youth justice system. \nJoin us in the lead up to National Reconciliation Week (27 May to 3 June) for this important discussion\, held in partnership with Emerging Minds\, on how to better centre children’s experiences\, concerns and aspirations for their future. \nThe theme for National Reconciliation Week 2025 is Bridging Now to Next. The theme reflects the connection between past\, present and future and calls on all Australians to step forward together\, to look ahead and continue the push forward\, guided by past lessons. \nThis webinar will highlight the need to challenge the assumption of Western expertise that has dominated Australia’s colonial history and that has been imposed on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children\, families and communities\, and the importance of valuing and respecting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ways of knowing\, being and doing. \nAboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children have a right for their voice to be heard in matters that affect them\, and may want to be involved in decisions relating to them. By centering the perspectives and experiences of children\, we can provide a place for children to feel seen\, heard and understood\, and help reinforce their cultural\, social or personal identity. By practicing deep listening we can have more meaningful conversations and build deeper relationships with the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and families we work with. \n  \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Webinar: Understanding and responding to childhood suicidal ideation: A case scenario | CFCA & Emerging Minds
DESCRIPTION:Suicidal ideation refers to thoughts about endings one’s life. These thoughts can be once-off or reoccurring. Childhood suicidal ideation is a growing public health issue in Australia. In 2023\, Kids Helpline reported that suicide-related concerns was the third most common reason a child or young person (5-18 years) reached out to the service\, accounting for 17% of service contacts. Although most suicide-related counselling contact is from 15 to 18 year olds\, an increasing number of younger children\, some as young as 7\, are seeking suicide-related support. \nAlthough suicidal ideation does not mean a child will take their own life\, it can be extremely distressing for the child and their family. Childhood suicidal ideation is a complex issue and one that practitioners are increasingly encountering in their work. \nUsing a case scenario – a hypothetical situation used for educational purposes – panellists will reflect on some of the ethical considerations that practitioners need to consider when responding to children and families and provide practical strategies to help practitioners better understand and support children experiencing suicidal ideation. \nThe webinar will discuss how practitioners can foster connection\, seek the child’s insights\, and recognise the child’s and the families’ strength. \nThis webinar will give you: \n\na better understanding of the experiences of distress and despair that can lead to childhood suicidal ideation\ninsight into the ethical considerations that need to be considered when responding to childhood suicidal ideation\nan understanding of how to apply a collaborative and curious approach to support connection and understanding between the child and their family\ninsight into how to recognise and highlight children’s ideas\, values and skills in managing their challenges\n\nThis webinar will be of interest to practitioners working with children and families. \nRegister here
