The Protective Factors Series
The Strengthening Families Protective Factors Framework™ is an evidence-informed tool for strengthening families and reducing the likelihood of child abuse and neglect. The framework helps professionals work with children and families to promote the optimal development of all children while protecting vulnerable children from maltreatment.
This training is designed for anyone who works with children and families and focuses on concrete ways your work can support the building of Protective Factors. Each month, CalTrin will focus on one Protective Factor. Learners can register for individual trainings that meet their learning needs and their schedule.
El Marco de Factores de Protección para Fortalecer a las Familias (The Strengthening Families™ Protective Factors Framework) es una herramienta basada en pruebas para fortalecer a las familias y reducir la probabilidad de maltrato y abandono infantil. El marco ayuda a los profesionales a trabajar con los niños y las familias para promover el desarrollo óptimo de todos los niños y, al mismo tiempo, proteger a los niños vulnerables de los malos tratos.
Esta capacitación está diseñada para cualquier persona que trabaje con niños y familias y se centra en formas concretas en las que usted puede apoyar la construcción de factores de protección en su trabajo.
