This training is designed to provide medical professionals with a foundational understanding of trauma-informed care. Trauma-informed care offers a helpful framework for organizations serving individuals who have experienced trauma. Trauma occurs as a result of violence, abuse, neglect, loss, disaster, war, and other emotionally harmful experiences; and the impact often endures long past the event through a variety of sequelae. This training is intended to help healthcare providers and mental health providers build and improve trauma-informed care through development of awareness and understanding of trauma and its effect on individuals, as well as the effect on healthcare providers and other staff in the organization.

The crime of child sexual abuse is sadly a familiar one to the American public. However, one category of child sexual abuse has largely escaped the public’s attention: child-on-child sexual abuse. 
There is growing concern among parents, educators, and child safety experts regarding children who sexually abuse other children. Typically such scenarios a youth who uses their age, physical strength, or positions of status or authority, to engage other youth in sexual activity. Child-on-child sexual abuse also includes a wide range of other harmful sexual behaviors such as peeping, exhibitionism, exposure to pornography, sexual harassment (including cyber-based), fondling, etc., and may occur between young children.
