However\, many professionals often misinterpret normative beha viors and are also unequipped to effectively address genuine problematic s exual behaviors (PSB) in the investigative process or intervention. Foren sic Interviewers could (and typically do) experience challenges when inter viewing children and teens who initiated an alleged PSB\, such as when a y outh provides self-incriminating information about their sexual behavior w ith other children. There is little guidance for Forensic Interviewers re garding these cases. Sadly\, many children and teens with problematic sex ual behavior do not receive the types of services that support a helpful m ultidisciplinary team response or healthy behavioral functioning and famil y healing. This workshop will provide information to help forensic intervi ewers distinguish normative from problematic sexual behavior in children a nd teens\, identify potential contributing factors to the behavior\, dispe l common misconceptions about these behaviors and children and teens\, and have a more robust and evidence-informed response to these cases. \n\nLe arning Objectives:\n1. Participants will be able to apply a framework to distinguish normative from problematic sexual behaviors in children and teens. \n\n2. Participants will learn research-based information to dis pel common persistent and adverse myths that impact professional response to cases of children and teens with problematic sexual behaviors.\n\n3. P articipants will be able to identify at least two strategies to enhance pr ofessional response to cases of children and teens with problematic sexual behavior. \n\n X-WR-RELCALID:113138a6a58ee0be442291d6d021d461 X-WR-TIMEZONE:America/New_York BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/New_York BEGIN:STANDARD TZNAME:EST DTSTART:20221106T020000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0400 TZOFFSETTO:-0500 RDATE:20231105T020000 RDATE:20241103T020000 END:STANDARD BEGIN:DAYLIGHT TZNAME:EDT DTSTART:20230312T020000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0500 TZOFFSETTO:-0400 RDATE:20240310T020000 RDATE:20250309T020000 END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE BEGIN:VEVENT UID:6aea206c-c68e-420b-8ea0-bf10e56bb155 DTSTAMP:20260422T060144Z DESCRIPTION:16th Annual Forensic Interviewer Training\nMyths vs Facts about Children & Teens with Problematic Sexual Behavior & Accommodations for th e Forensic Interview.\n\nDate& Time: Oct. 19th - 9:15am-3:30pm\nLocation : Central Alabama Electric Cooperative\n103 Jesse Samuel Hunt Blvd.\nPratt ville\, Alabama 36068\n \nCatered lunch: soups\, salads\, dessert\nSocial Work CEs: Approved for 4.5 hours of professional training\nANCAC will rei mburse mileage for one car per CAC\n\nTrainers: Jimmy Widdifield\, Jr.\, LPC (he/him)\, Director\, Training/Technical Assistance for Child Abuse Pr ofessionals Project\, National Children’s Advocacy Center\n\nLinda Cordisc o Steele\, Director\, Forensic Interviewing Training and Services\, Nation al Children’s Advocacy Center\n\nSummary: Children and teens engage in se xual behaviors that range from developmentally expected to problematic and harmful.
