Submitted By: Elisamariabarrios@gmail.com – Click to email about this post

Join the community in learning about providing intentional safety and healing for child survivors of sexual abuse. In this transformational training, you will come away with an understanding of how to notice the signs of abuse, facts and history about child sexual abuse, ways to define and recognize trauma survival skills in others and in yourself and how to respond to someone who discloses abuse. This is a free community education to help educate people about the devastating affects of child abuse and how to further educate your friends and family.

Change your community one campfire at a time! Join The Healing Circle for our 36th year of providing Victory Over Child Abuse (VOCA) camps! Come to learn about our programs and have some epic discussions. This training also serves as the Volunteer Training for people wishing to volunteer at VOCA Camps and Youth Mentor Groups. People wishing to attend programs working with youth, must attend all in person training sessions. People who would like to volunteer in other ways for The Healing Circle are not required to attend all VOCA Training sessions.

Volunteer applications, confidentiality forms and background check applications will be sent to registrants of this training.
