Many foster children don’t know their life story as the trauma they experienced and the grief and loss created from that trauma has clouded that child’s narrative.  The use of children’s literature books, songs and movies is a fun and non-threatening way for your child to begin to heal and it allows you as the foster or adoptive parent to approach the issues of foster care and adoption in a creative and supportive way.  In this workshop, participants will learn how trauma distorts a child’s story, the grief and loss cycle and how stories, songs and movies can be tools for parents to help their children heal, plus so much more.

Instructors: Nicole Espinosa, LCSW & Gisella Gomez, MSW
