Pathways from Childhood Aggression to Youth Violence in Boys and Girls" 8:15 AM to 3:45 PM (6 CE Hours) The presentation is based upon the author's books: Lost Boys: Why Our Sons Turn Violent and How We Can Save Them (NY: Free Press, 1999); See Jane Hit: Why Girls Are Growing More Violent and What We Can Do About It (NY: Penguin Press, 2006); Raising Children in a Socially Toxic Environment (San Francisco: Jossey-­‐Bass, 1994); and Listening to Killers: Lessons Learned from My Twenty Years as a Psychological Expert Witness in Murder Cases (University of California Press, for release January 2015.) The participants will be able to identify two pathways from early attachment issues to later violence; four elements of “risky thinking” that link early trauma to conduct disorder in childhood; identify three elements of social toxicity that affect the prognosis for childhood conduct disorder; two risk factors and two protective factors affecting the impact of early trauma on subsequent aggression and violence; three examples of how an ecological perspective on human development refines questions and issues about aggression and attachment; two features of the development of violence that a comparison of boys and girls reveals; and two strategies for increasing developmental assets through relationship mentoring.

Dr. Keck will present . . . Monday, November 24, 2014 Holiday Buffet Dinner at 5:15 PM "Keeping Adoptive Families Strong" 6:30 PM to 8:45 PM (2 CE Hours) During this session, participants will be able to help keep their families balanced after adopting a traumatized child; reduce the amount of tension that family members experience; and facilitate the integration of the child into the family. Tuesday, November 25, 2014 “The Impact of Trauma on Child Development” 8:15 AM to 11:30 AM (3 CE Hours) This workshop will examine how early trauma leads to a variety of difficulties which begin in childhood and may continue throughout adulthood. Some of the issues that will be included in the discussion are: Attachment related problems, on-­‐going trauma responses, emotional dysregulation, and possibly intergenerational child maltreatment. There will be a balanced presentation of theory and practice related issues. Particular emphasis will be placed on children and adolescents. Participants will be able to explain the connection between early childhood trauma and developmental interruptions; help families who live with traumatized children deal with the behavioral results of trauma; and identify behavioral responses to trauma. Heather T. Forbes, LCSW Heather T. Forbes, LCSW, is an internationally pub-­‐
lished author on the topics of raising children with difficult and severe behaviors, the impact of trauma on the developing child, adoptive motherhood, and self-­‐
development. Her books include: Help for Billy: A Beyond Consequences Approach to Helping Challenging Children in the Classroom (2012); Beyond Consequences, Logic, and Control: A Love-­‐based Approach to Helping Attachment-­‐Challenged Children with Severe Behaviors (Vol., 1, 2006, Vol., 2, 2008). Ms. Forbes is the owner of the Beyond Consequences Institute, Boulder, Colorado. She has worked in the field of trauma and healing since 1999. Coming from a family of educators, Forbes has a heart for children in the classroom and for finding ways to teach the child that seems "unteachable." Her signature style is to bridge the gap between scientific research and real-­‐life application to equip parents, educators, and therapists with practical and effective tools. Much of her experience and insight on understanding trauma, disruptive behaviors, and adoption-­‐related issues comes from her direct mothering experience of her two adopted children. Ms. Forbes will present . . . Tuesday, November 25, 2014 "Help for Billy in the Classroom" 8:15 AM to 11:30 AM (3 CE Hours) Many children, who may be doing well early on, can suddenly demonstrate negative and out-­‐of-­‐control behaviors once they start their academic careers. School environments present a tremendous challenge to many of our children due to the increase in social interactions and the demands placed on their focus, concentration, and performance. This is especially true for children with any type of traumatic background, as they tend to have a high sensitivity to stress with high states of anxiety. This workshop will examine the impact of life experiences on a child’s development and will offer a new understanding of challenging behaviors for children in the classroom. A fresh perspective, with effective classroom tools, will be discussed and demonstrated to successfully create environments to return our children to the love of learning. Tuesday, November 25, 2014 "Beyond Consequences: Helping Families Heal" 12:30 PM to 3:45 PM (3 CE Hours) This training will examine how stress and trauma affect a child's ability to regulate behaviors and how a history of trauma compromises a child's ability to respond and develop reciprocal relationships. The presenter will explain brain development from conception on, accompanied by a look at how the nervous system is affected by trauma. Memory, emotions, and stress are elements that will be discussed as they pertain to many of the common childhood mental health disorders such as reactive attachment disorder, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, and childhood depression. This course offers effective options for children and families that go beyond traditional cognitive behavior techniques in order to create healing homes for families with wounded children. Parenting strategies that are needed in creating healing homes will also be identified and demonstrated. We gratefully acknowledge our Conference Sponsors 
