Participants will also be introduced to the evidence-based literature that supports the NCAC CFI Structure.

Trauma can affect children mentally and physically, even when they haven’t been physically hurt themselves. The session focuses on conducting interviews that consider the child’s emotional state and working closely with investigators for a thorough and compassionate approach.

This training is recommended for forensic interviewers at any level who wish to increase their ability to obtain the most complete and accurate information from a child witness. Information and registration.
