During your TST-FC training you will learn a lot about how you can help children\, teenagers or siblings in your home.   \nSome of the exercises are for you — to help you figure out what overwhelms a child and what centers him or her.

The idea is for everyone to get more comfortable experiencing strong feelings without becoming overwhelmed. \nThis training is by invite only. Please contact Valerie Nichols or Tricia Hein for the link. \nTrainers and credentials: Valerie Nichols\, MA\, Therapist\, and Tricia Hein\, Training Coordinator  \nCEUs available: None \nCost for non-KVC Staff and foster parents: None \nFor questions and to register\, contact: Valerie Nichols at vnichols@kvc.org or 304-380-3869 or Tricia Hein at phein@kvc.org or 304-932-3692.

SUMMARY:Virtual Training: Road to Adulthood – The Mysterious Teenage Brain (2 CEUs)
DESCRIPTION:Even though adolescents are beginning puberty sooner (around 9-12)\, their brains are still developing over a longer period of time. This may cause teens to appear more mature than they really are. The brain isn’t “done” developing until youth are in their mid to late 20s. You will receive 2 CEUs for your participation. \nIn this two-hour virtual training\, attendees and Erin Keltner\, MSW\, LICSW\, KVC West Virginia’s Vice President of Clinical Services\, will explore the mysteries of teenage brain development\, group work\, stats and assessments. \nTraining objectives: \n\n\nLearn about the adolescent brain and how it works.\n\n\nBetter understand statistics about teenagers and their behavior.\n\n\nExplore how we can best serve youth as they age out of care.\n\n\nUnderstand Casey Life Skills and other tools that help us gauge what our youth need as they transition.\n\n\nRegister\nDHHR employees – Free ($0) \n\nIndustry professionals\, teachers\, etc. – $40 ($20 per credit hour x 2) \n\nJoin the trainings on April 20\n\n\nAbout the Presenter\n\nErin Keltner started with Croney and Clark\, Inc. (now KVC Kentucky) as a practicum student in August 2004.
