The most frequent allegation of child maltreatment is neglect. Some families are referred to the department numerous times with little change in family functioning. In this course, participants will learn how to assess for chronic neglect, its effects on children and appropriate interventions.
This course is designed for social service specialist staff to increase their ability to assess and intervene with families with allegations of neglect.
DCYF staff can register for Appropriate Interventions for Chronic Neglect through the Washington State Learning Center (WSLC). For help with WSLC, please contact DCYF.LearningCenter@dcyf.wa.gov.
