SUMMARY:Zero Abuse Project: Preparing Children for our Process: Finding the Balance Between Saying Too Much\, but Not Saying Enough

Provide a structure for the minimal facts interview.\nGain sample language for engaging with children and families prior to the interview.\nDiscuss the various multidisciplinary team roles and responsibilities in preparing the child and family for the process.\n\nRegister online via Zero Abuse Project \n
