Supporting survivors of harm
30th June 2025 @ 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM
Course outline:
Does your organisation have clear processes in place detailing how victims, those affected, and potential victims of child-on-child abuse are supported?
How do you know that all victims feel reassured that they are being taken seriously, and will be supported and kept safe?
This webinar looks at best practice in delivering safety planning, and support for children and young people who are victims of abuse or crime, may have been harmed due to abuse within the family, community or within the organisational context including child-on-child abuse and abuse by those in positions of trust.
Training topics will include:
- Victims, survivors and the harmed: how do we describe, define and understand the scope
- Best practice in working with young victims of abuse and crime: what works
- What does safety planning look like: is yours defensible?
- Tailoring processes for those harmed in different contexts: what can we adapt and improve
Learning outcomes:
- Delegates will have the opportunity to consider the definition, and scope of children and young people who can be described as victims or survivors including potential victims
- Delegates will increase their knowledge and understanding of best practice in working with young victims of abuse and crime
- Delegates will have an opportunity to review what robust safety planning looks like
Audience: This webinar is for all pastoral support workers, SENCOs, safeguarding practitioners and leaders working with children and young people who are victims of harm from outside the family, within the family and from peer groups (child on child abuse)
