Webinar Description
We all became mental health professionals for a reason: we want to help. However, helping can be complicated, especially when it comes to families. It’s hard to distinguish problematic parenting from child maltreatment. Poverty and substance use disorders can make it more difficult to evaluate a situation. As mental health professionals, it is even more complicated, because we’re legally obligated to report certain suspicions to child protective services. This session was developed to help you understand the considerations you should make when you have a concern about someone’s parenting. We’ll explore common case studies to identify practical strategies for intervention with families that meet our legal and ethical obligations.
