Full Description:   

P>Professionals evaluating children for alleged sexual abuse must be aware that they may ultimately be called upon to present their findings in a court of law. This invaluable video from child abuse evaluation expert Kathleen Faller and child advocacy lawyer Suellyn Scarnecchia helps viewers understand their role in legal proceedings; prepare and deliver testimony effectively; and minimize the stress involved for children. Ideal viewing for mental health and child protection professionals as well as lawyers, judges, and law enforcement personnel, the program is enhanced by vignettes from simulated courtroom sessions and in-depth commentary from the presenters and other legal experts. Viewers learn to anticipate the challenges of the adversarial courtroom environment, maximize the legal admissibility of the information they present, and familiarize children with the courtroom setting and procedures. The companion manual features supplemental information, findings on children's memory and suggestibility, role-play scenarios and skills exercises, resource listings, and references for further reading.

"These programs provide an easily understood primer for newcomers to the field of child interviewing, and a good review of basic skills and protocols for seasoned professionals."
-Charles Wilson, MSSW, Executive Director, National Children's Advocacy Center, Huntsville, Alabama
