Native Child Abuse Training (event) |
||||||
|
We are conducting training for medical personnel who are licensed to practice independently (MD, nurse practitioners, PA) and/or the medical member of the MDT or CPT or with tribes who have or are developing child advocacy centers. We are seeking professionals who would be interested in getting intensive training in the medical evaluation of child abuse and neglect with emphasis on physical and sexual abuse. This funding is from the Office for Victims of Crime and we wish to coordinate with other OVC sponsored tribal efforts. We have funding for approximately 16-18 people and will provide for their travel and lodging plus possibly software and equipment. This has been advertised in the IHS Provider, on the American Indian Physicians website, a minority pediatric website; at conferences and workshops, by telephone calls, on my e-mail for the past year, on our website, 500 +direct mailings to IHS and tribal clinics and hospitals, and our response rates has been low. It would be wonderful training for tribes interested in either improving or developing their child advocacy center, or CJA grantees who are building their child protection teams, or someone who wishes to increase medical services in child maltreatment. So please share this with your tribal grantees who may be interested or pass on to other tribal programs. The training is scheduled for October, 2003. Please refer all to our website at http://w3.ouhsc.edu/ccan or to me. The deadline was May 30 but we are extending it. I would appreciate any help you can give. Thanks, dbf Dolores
