CASA Lecture Series - Children in Care and Mental Health

Considerations of safety have long been at the forefront of work with children and youth in out-of- home care, though what that looks like has evolved over the years. The introduction of Trauma- Informed Care has resulted in more in-depth explorations of the meaning of safety for both young people and their carers in order to promote both organizational and individual health. Determining what safety means for individuals both within and outside of this system of care is a critical point of connection and intervention. This presentation will present the concept of safety as critical to the mental health of children in care environments.
