Stand Against Child Abuse Conference

Join fellow professionals and experts for a day of presentations and workshops about preventing child abuse and working with victims.

The one-day conference is intended for school personnel, prosecutors, law enforcement, probation officers, child protective/child welfare personnel, mental health professionals, medical providers and other professionals working with children. Select workshops are eligible for Social Work CEU Credits.
