SUMMARY:Working with Youth Experiencing Housing Instability: Training for IDHS Homeless Youth Program Providers
DESCRIPTION:This two-day webinar is designed specifically for new supervisory and front-line staff working in Illinois DHS-funded Homeless Youth programs. Participants will receive an orientation to both effective practice with youth experiencing homelessness and the program requirements necessary for successful implementation of DHS-funded services. \nTopics include understanding the unique needs and experiences of youth experiencing homelessness\, engagement strategies\, trauma-informed and developmentally responsive practices\, case studies\, and available resources. Participants will also learn the policies\, regulations\, documentation expectations\, and contractual requirements specific to Illinois DHS Homeless Youth programs to support program compliance and quality service delivery. \nThis training is intended for staff working in or preparing to work in Illinois DHS-funded Homeless Youth programs. While best practices for serving youth experiencing homelessness are discussed\, a significant portion of the training focuses on DHS program requirements and compliance. \nFour continuing education units (CEUs) will be available for participants with social work and professional counseling licenses (LSW\, LCSW\, LPC\, LCPC). If you would like to request CEUs\, you may do so in the evaluation survey sent after completing this training.

SUMMARY:Trauma and Juvenile Delinquency
DESCRIPTION:In this session\, participants will examine the critical intersection between trauma and juvenile delinquency\, with a primary focus on how Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) influence youth behavior and involvement in the legal system. Participants will learn to identify characteristics commonly associated with “high-risk” youth while gaining practical\, trauma-informed strategies for engaging and supporting this population. By the end of the training\, participants will better understand how life experiences and systemic circumstances contribute to system involvement and how to effectively support youth impacted by these challenges. \nTwo and a half Continuing Education Units (CEUs) will be available for participants with social work and professional counseling licenses (LSW\, LCSW\, LPC\, LCPC). If you would like to request CEUs\, you may do so in the evaluation survey sent after completing this training.
