Mandated Reporter Training

This one-day training is designed for child care providers, teachers, health care workers, therapists, patrol officers, advocates and other professionals who have a mandated responsibility to report suspected child maltreatment. This course teaches the CornerHouse RIFCR process for talking with children and vulnerable adults regarding suspected maltreatment.

Attendees will also learn to discern normal child sexual development from concerning behaviors, the dynamics and disclosure process of child sexual abuse, and how to effectively report suspected maltreatment. Training methods include skill-building through practice, lecture material, videotaped demonstrations and group exercises. Comprehensive course notebooks including research, lecture materials and resource guides will be provided.
