Family law professionals continue to become more and more aware of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs).
In this webinar, participants will be given an opportunity to review the original and subsequent classifications of ACEs.
The presenter will also discuss the importance of understanding:
- what is happening for children whose parents are going through FDR
- the lived experiences of parents when they themselves were young adults
- how to use these understandings in the family dispute resolution (FDR) process.
Learning outcomes
Participants will gain confidence in:
- describing the classifications of ACEs
- speaking to parties about ACEs
- developing strategies to share with parties to mitigate the effects of ACEs.
Ideal for
Family law practitioners, family dispute resolution practitioners, family workers, health and community practitioners and individual counsellors/therapists.
