Description: Parents who struggle with drug addiction, HIV and/or incarceration face many personal and institutional barriers to developing and maintaining healthy relationships with their children. The primary purpose of this national conference is to promote practices that help to strengthen these relationships, and minimize trauma and attachment disorders among infants and young children. Specifically, the conference will present family-focused, multi-disciplinary strategies that: (1) strengthen and support parent-child relationships to prevent separation due to substance abuse and/or HIV; (2) maintain parent-child relationships during necessary separation due to incarceration, substance abuse and/or HIV; and (3) rebuild parent-child relationships during reunification. | |
