SUMMARY:CalTrin | Trauma-Informed Leadership in Turbulent Times: Building Resilient Teams Through Compassion & Accountability
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nOver the last decade\, trauma-informed care has gained widespread attention across service systems such as child welfare\, mental health\, juvenile justice\, and beyond. Historically\, these practices have focused on supporting organizations and staff in providing trauma-informed services to the clients they serve. Yet\, in light of recent national and global challenges\, it is clear that leaders themselves need a trauma-informed approach to sustain their teams\, navigate moral distress\, and lead with clarity in turbulent times. \nThis interactive webinar introduces a comprehensive trauma-informed leadership framework that integrates lessons from organizational science\, implementation research\, and the lived realities of today’s workforce. Participants will explore the seven core practices of trauma-informed leadership—Boundary setting\, Reliability\, Empathy\, Accountability\, Transparency\, Cultural Humility\, and Understanding Errors—and how these principles can be applied to both daily decision-making and long-term organizational change. \nThe session will provide leaders with: \n\nConcrete strategies to cultivate resilience and psychological safety in their teams.\nTools for balancing compassion with accountability\, so that care and high standards can coexist.\nApproaches for addressing moral distress and systemic stressors without burning out.\nPractical ways to integrate trauma-informed principles into supervision\, communication\, and organizational culture.\n\nDesigned for leaders across services and systems\, this training emphasizes that trauma-informed leadership is not simply about client care—it is about how leaders model peace\, purpose\, and presence in every layer of organizational life. \nAfter this webinar\, participants will be able to: \n\nDefine the seven core practices of trauma-informed leadership and describe how they apply to leading teams in high-stress environments\nApply at least three practical strategies to balance compassionate leadership with accountability\, including ways to address moral distress\, sustain workforce well-being\, and create conditions for resilience and psychological safety\nDevelop an action plan for integrating trauma-informed leadership principles into daily supervision\, communication\, and organizational culture to strengthen staff engagement and system-wide impact\n\nWho should attend: Staff in leadership roles at family resource centers (FRCs)\, Child Abuse Prevention Councils (CAPCs)\, community-based organizations\, and other child- and family-serving systems. \nRegister Through CalTrin\n

SUMMARY:CalTrin Building a Resilient and High-Performing Organizational Culture
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nTo foster resilience and positivity\, we must first create the conditions for resilience and positivity. Leadership is ultimately responsible for creating these conditions. This training will support leaders in developing the vision\, commitment\, communication\, and planning that allows organizations to move resilience training from well-being programs to longer-term initiatives that define and build the organizational cultures we need for resilience to persist. Some of the concepts included are the leadership team’s resilience practices\, how supervisors and middle managers are supported and empowered to move the vision and strategies forward\, and how leadership fosters honest and vulnerable feedback about the culture from staff at all levels. This is just what is needed now\, as we move our workplaces forward toward being organizations where people want to work. \nRegister Through CalTrin\n

SUMMARY:CalTrin | Problematic Sexual Behaviors in Children and Adolescents: The Do's and Don'ts for the Criminal Justice System
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nWhen a child or adolescent sexually acts out it can be a scary experience for not just a parent\, but also for the provider working with the family\, especially if the child is justice system involved.  This webinar will first correct common myths and misconceptions about children who sexually act out (e.g.\, the supermajority of these children are highly responsive to treatment and are NOT pedophiles). \nThe second aspect of this webinar will be a walk-through of the evidence for how to treat these children and the likelihood of success (e.g.\, with appropriate\, evidence-based practices children 3 to 18 who engage in these behaviors are up to 95% successful in treatment and do not sexually reoffend again).  Finally\, the last part of this presentation will tie parts one and two together to answer the question of how providers in the criminal justice system can best help these families as well as keep the community and public safe. \nDuring this webinar\, participants will discuss: \n\nThe “rules of thumb” for addressing problematic sexual behaviors (PSBs) in youth.\nMethods that are contraindicated and counter-therapeutic for intervening in youth with PSBs.\nSpecific resources (e.g.\, NCSBY) and interventions (e.g.\, PSB-CBT) that are effective in helping youth and families impacted by PSBs.\n\nRegister Through CalTrin\n
