- #9: We have several new Special Topics currently being added to the Learning Center. These will join the Child Welfare Trauma Training Toolkit, Trauma-Informed Interventions, and Toolkit for Educators special topics. This section of the NCTSN Learning Center aims to connect mental health professionals, students, researchers, and others interested in the field of child trauma to the various free resources that are available through the National Child Traumatic Stress Network. The resources highlighted in this section have been created through dedicated collaborations within the NCTSN in order to provide resources that assist in raising the standard of care for traumatized children and families. Each resource page functions as an online classroom where participants are not only able to explore the resource, but see and hear how others in the field are using the resource, what others think of it, and keep up to date on activities associated with the resource.
