Urban Violence Traumatic Stress Response Syndrome (UVTS) is a concept developed by Dr. Erwin Randolph Parsons. UVTS is not a diagnosis that you can find in the DSM-V; rather, it is a concept that explains how much urban youth become afflicted with Posttraumatic Stress Disorder. This training will cover the causes, symptoms, and treatments of Urban Violence Traumatic Response Syndrome. It is also worth noting that although we see this most often in inner-city youth, it can occur anytime a youth is being raised in a violent and chaotic environment with insufficient parental guidance and supervision.

This 1-day interactive training experience will review basic information on the signs and symptoms of PTSD.  At the conclusion of the training, each participant will receive a facilitator training manual to further train their staff.

If you are like many professionals you haven’t had training on how to deal with stressors in your life! Any Professional working within the Juvenile Justice Profession, Public Education, and/or Social Service Agencies should attend this fun interactive training that examines our stressors and creates a plan that will help deal with them.

Current research in the field of trauma is showing that treatment of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder cannot be approached in a “one size fits all “manner.  The effects of trauma vary greatly depending on the type of trauma, as well as the severity and duration of the trauma. There has been rapid advancement in formulating specific treatment approaches for specific types of traumatized populations. This training will examine the unique symptoms and specific treatment protocols that can be utilized to help victims of sex trafficking, people that have lost loved ones to murder, and children that have endured war, slavery, or political terror, as well as some other unique trauma populations.

This is an interactive training to understand adolescent mental health disorders.  Adolescents in the Juvenile Justice System have substantially higher rates of Mental Disorders than those in the general population.  It is reported that over 75% of these adolescents suffer from disorders either detected or undetected.  Anxiety and Mood Disorders are among the most common.
