Overview
Project Broadcast is a partnership between CCFH and the North Carolina Division of Social Services (NCDSS) focused on developing a trauma-informed child welfare workforce throughout the state.
Project activities include:
- Trauma-related needs assessment for departments of social services
- Training for child welfare personnel in trauma-informed child welfare practices
- Training staff to facilitate the National Child Traumatic Stress Network’s Caring for Children Who Have Experienced Trauma: A Workshop for Resource Parents (Resource Parent Curriculum)
- Disseminating a trauma screening tool designed specifically for child welfare contexts
Project Broadcast also consults with departments of social services on orienting new staff to trauma-informed practices and on preventing burnout among child welfare workers.
