CARE Network New Provider Training 2024
The deadline to register for this event is April 4, 2024.
The CARE Network invites all prospective CARE Network providers to attend the New Provider Training. Participation is required to join the Network but is also open to providers interested in expanding their knowledge about identifying & treating child maltreatment.
The goals of this training are to increase local capacity for behavioral health and medical expertise in recognizing, assessing, and responding to childhood risk for maltreatment and trauma. By training and supporting designated providers at this conference, they will be able to go back to their communities with improved practice. Best practice standards will be addressed throughout the training, and evidence-based practices will be reviewed. This will improve both access and quality of care for patients.
At the conference providers will have the opportunity to learn referral process and system-based protocols for working with other family-serving agencies, such as social services. After the conference, process barriers will be further alleviated by continued ongoing support from Kempe child abuse experts for case consultation, ongoing education, and policy coordination.

The New Provider Training is oriented towards the following types of providers:
- Physicians (MD, DO)
- Psychologists (PsyD, PhD)
- Advanced Practice Providers (PA, NP)
