African Americans have been disproportionately affected by H V/AIDS since the epidemic’s beginning; and that disparity has deepened over time. African Americans account for more new HIV infections; people estimated to be living with HIV disease; and HIV-related deaths than any other racial/ethnic group in the U.S. The epidemic has also had a disproportionate impact on African American women; youth and gay and bisexual men; and its impact varies across the country. As a Wraparound provider in LA county; it is common to work with families affected by HIV.
Child-welfare professionals and mental health therapists serving children and families who are achieving permanency through adoption/guardianship often have a limited understanding of the complex issues that complicate or contribute to common mental health problems. These include trauma; grief; loss; identity and many others. This presentation will highlight the need for adoption mental health competency training for child-welfare and mental-health professionals; and it will present the National Adoption Competency Mental Health Training Initiative’s (NTI) efforts to create systems change to better address the mental health needs of children who have achieved permanency through adoption or guardianship. NTI has piloted a state-of-the-art; evidence-informed; web-based training initiative. This presentation will discuss the pilot (which includes California); core competencies of the curriculum; initial evaluation findings; and challenges and successes of implementing a web-based curriculum in our pilot sites.
Imagine living in a world of dragons, elves, orcs and magic, where you are tasked with saving all that you know as home from unknown forces of wrongdoing.
Are you ready to take your Wraparound interactions to a higher level? Participants will tap into their creative sides and explore new and fun ways to turn everyday items into meaningful tools.

Participants will engage in an assessment of program alignment; learn strategies for strengthening alignment and leave with action steps for moving their program toward true integration.

How are fathers treated in your agency? Child welfare and juvenile probation are required to work with parents of children to create a safe environment for their children. Often; the work is done with the mother; and the efforts to engage the father fade away or are simply less. Does your agency do that? Are the children and youth you work with getting the benefit of their fathers? Is there an unspoken bias to prioritize moms? Hear from dads who have been in the system and are now working hard to make sure agencies are attuned to the needs of fathers. Go dads!

Many of the families we serve in Wraparound have unresolved grief and loss issues that are often overlooked by Wraparound providers. This workshop will raise awareness of the impact of loss on the roles and responsibilities in families, provide a treatment framework based on Worden’s 4 Tasks of Grieving, and suggest specific interventions that Wraparound teams could do with families in Wraparound meetings that could help them get through these difficult times better.
