Join Manchester Women's Aid for a full day training to understand how to better support women with experiences of trauma, loss and recovery after child removal.
Manchester Women's Aid know child removal can have a devastating and long-lasting impact, resulting in complex grief, shame, trauma and loss of identity. Women are disproportionately affected, often in the context of domestic abuse, coercive control, mental ill health and housing instability - yet many receive little support after their children are removed.
Drawing on the expertise of REFRAME – a unique specialist service supporting women who have experienced multiple child removals, these trainings will help practitioners understand the impact and how to support those affected better.
You will learn how to challenge unconscious bias, explore the effects of domestic abuse on maternal identity, and develop a practical, trauma-informed approach to support recovery and identity rebuilding.
