1 Child Development in the Colorado Child Welfare System Tuesday All Day We all know that each stage of human development is built upon the stages that came before. This means that, when a baby/child/youth comes into the child welfare system, chances are their behavior will be symptomatic of underlying traumatic events such as weakening of parental bonds, impact of substance abuse, domestic violence, physical and sexual abuse, and neglect that have caused developmental issues. During this day of training, you will develop a fundamental understanding of human developmental stages that is sufficient to make decisions that will promote lifelong healthy development for children and youth involved in the Colorado child welfare system. We Presenter Bio Diane Baird: Diane is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 30 years of experience in Child Welfare. She holds a bachelor s degree in education and earned her MSW from Tulane University Graduate School of Social Work in Diane s first training as a young caseworker in Dallas County, Texas was a 3 day workshop offered by the Kempe Center. Among the handouts was a booklet entitled Working with Abusive Parents from a Psychiatric Point of View, by Dr. Brandt Steele, which has been the foundation of her clinical work. Fast forward 10 years, and Diane was in Denver and working at the Kempe Center, and in weekly supervision with Drs. Brandt Steele and Ruth Kempe. Diane was employed at Kempe from ; during that time she worked on the Family Evaluation Team, did a little training, and eventually worked for Dr. David Olds as a program manager for Home Visitation She left that position for private practice, but continued to work with colleagues at the Center. She returned to full time employment in the Training, Education, and Consultation Program at the Kempe Center in 2008; Diane writes curricula, provides training for CDHS and the State Judicial Office, and collaborates with other states in the region to develop and offer training to child welfare staff. At the Kempe Center Diane is also involved in various clinical activities.
2 Education Advocacy in Child Welfare All day Tuesday Children in the child welfare system, particularly those who experience foster care, face tremendous barriers to accessing educational opportunities. Compared to their peers, they experience more school moves, less participation in extracurricular and pro-social activities, lower grades and test scores, increased suspension and expulsion, and are more likely to have disabilities. It is no surprise that poor educational outcomes lead to poor life outcomes, such as incarceration, addiction, and homelessness. This all-day session addresses the state and federal laws that can support youth having improved access to education and, in turn, better long-term outcomes. We will address the Individuals with Disabilities Act, focusing on issues that more frequently confront youth in the child welfare system. We will also cover state and federal school stability protections, school discipline, and fee waivers. The session aims to provide real-world skills though incorporation of activities and discussion. Presenter Bio Kristin Melton, Esq.: Kristin Melton is the Education Program Director at the Rocky Mountain Children s Law Center in Denver, Colorado. She joined the Law Center as an Equal Justice Works Fellow in 2011, when she started the education law program to address the intersection of education and child welfare law. Kristin's practice focuses on school stability, special education, and prevention of school push out through both policy advocacy and direct representation. In some cases, Kristin represents children's best interests as their court-appointed guardian ad litem; she also represents children and families privately in education-only cases. Kristin graduated in May 2011 from the University of Virginia School of Law, where she was honored with the Claire Corcoran Award and the Herbert L. Kramer/Herbert Bangel Community Service Award. While in law school, Kristin represented children and families through the Child Advocacy Clinic, the Family Resource Clinic, and the Legal Aid Justices Center's JustChildren Pro Bono Program. She interned with the Legal Aid Justice Center s Immigrant Advocacy Program and Advocates for Children s Services. Prior to law school, Kristin earned her bachelor s degree in History and Political Science in 2006 from Warren Wilson College, which has a unique triad of work, service, and academics. Kristin earned a Senior Service Award for her dedication to tutoring and mentoring youth.
3 Information in the Colorado Child Welfare System All day Tuesday As a professional involved in a Child Welfare/Dependency & Neglect case, do you wonder about what types of information are gathered and the laws that govern sharing the information within the child welfare system? If you are interested in understanding the broad array of records, reports, instruments and assessments that are prepared, and want to access and use this information to maximize the effectiveness of their advocacy or decision making role, this training is for you!

4 Procedures and Practices in the Colorado Child Welfare System Tuesday All Day While it is true that judicial officers and attorneys are well versed in child welfare law and that caseworkers, supervisors, and child welfare directors are professionally familiar with CCR Volume 7, it is not necessarily true that these groups of professionals KNOW ABOUT EACH OTHER S procedures and practices. What about the other child welfare stakeholders, the foster parents, CASA, and service providers? How familiar are they with the laws and rules that govern and shape the child welfare system in Colorado? Further, how can ALL individuals who are involved in the child welfare system become familiar enough with the procedures and practices to benefit families who find themselves involved with these powerful systems? Presenter Bios Honorable Robert Lowenbach: Judge Lowenbach is a Child Trauma Fellow, a Judge in Residence with the Colorado Judicial Branch, a Senior Judge, and a consultant dedicated to improving court and agency practice for dependent children and their families. Prior to his retirement he was a District Court Judge in Greeley, Colorado. During most of his 27 years as a judicial officer he presided over family matters and served on local and statewide committees to improve the administration of justice for families and children. At the time of his retirement he was the Lead Judge of the Weld County Model Court through the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges Victims Act Model Court project. Korey Elger has been working in the Child Welfare system for years in both the areas of ongoing child protection as well as intake investigations. Korey Elger has most recently been a Child Protection Intake Supervisor in Denver County since During that time she has worked as a liaison to the Denver District Attorney s office regarding child abuse and neglect cases.

In 2013 Ms. Elger presented with Dr. Kathy Wells at the Maternal Wellness Conference to help bring the medical providers and child welfare together for better care for pregnant women and mothers to newborn children. Korey Elger has a Master s in Social Work from Denver University with an emphasis in Child Welfare and an undergraduate degree in Social Work with an emphasis in Child Welfare from Metropolitan State College of Denver.
5 Community and Culture in the Colorado Child Welfare System The Colorado Child Welfare System is a complicated community of diverse stakeholders. Just take a moment to reflect on all of the people involved in a child welfare case: judicial officers, child welfare directors, court staff, supervisors, caseworkers, attorneys, CASA volunteers, foster parents, kin, youth, and birth parents. Chances are you already know that cultural barriers can mean the difference between success and failure, but would like some practical techniques for learning how to recognize and overcome these barriers. If you are interested in strengthening your awareness of how your perception of culture (e.g. race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, disabilities) affects communication and decision making and how it may influence your actions regarding removal, service provision and permanency planning, join other child welfare stakeholders for this training. Presenter Michelle Howard: Michelle Howard is currently a Senior Faculty member at the University of Colorado Kempe Center. Michelle has over 17 years of experience in the field of child welfare, juvenile justice and is a licensed professional counselor.

Her mission is to support and impact holistic changes in the key areas that promote positive emotional and physical well-being for all children, while ensuring that families and children have a voice. Michelle earned her Master's Degree in Counseling at the University of Nebraska at Omaha.
