Building Belonging: Uplifting Homeless Children, Foster-Involved, or Undocumented

At the 2023 Summit, we’ll learn from experts about what we can do to support children from birth to age 18 who are homeless, undocumented, or involved in the foster system. We’ll introduce frameworks, share strategies, and hear directly from individuals who have survived such loss first-hand.

You’ll leave with skills, competencies, and a community of caregivers for the children you serve.

Early Childhood Educators: Explore the impact of family separation, removal from the home, and housing instability on young children. Learn specialized frameworks for educating and empowering families and caregivers with unaddressed trauma and ongoing housing instability. Gain tangible skills and activities to utilize to support young children’s safety, regulation, and health.

K-12 Educators & Staff: Explore the stress and adversity experienced by children who are homeless, undocumented, or foster involved, and increased risk of trafficking and substance use. Learn tools to assess and identify services, engagement strategies to encourage utilization, and approaches to building safety, belonging, and regulation.

Social/ Community Services and Residential Care Providers: A focus on complex trauma will offer targeted approaches for youth experiencing homelessness, or living in group homes, residential treatment centers, or foster homes. Learn approaches for supporting unaccompanied minors in residential care or receiving community services, with a significant focus on compounding stress or racial, ancestral and generational trauma.

Mental & Behavioral Health Providers: Explore evidence-based interventions and culturally-responsive approaches rooted in both clinical and community models of care. Learn tools and frameworks to guide clinical decision making and interventions based on the unique lived experiences and trauma exposures.
