Over the past 18 months, systemic and structural discrimination have received widespread—and, let’s face it, much-needed—media attention and public discussion. But what hasn’t had the same level of attention is interpersonal discrimination. The nasty comments. The othering. The exclusion—not at the hands of a faceless bureaucracy, but in our own communities, between individual people. Now, many of us were raised with a sort of “sticks and stones can break our bones, but words can never hurt us” sort of bravado. But what if words, and actions, about our personal appearance, race, gender, and age did create long-term harm? What if instead of simple slights that we should shrug off, these were recognized as vulnerabilities for the development of mental illness or substance abuse in young adulthood? We spoke with Yvonne Lei, a medical student at UCLA and lead researcher on a study of interpersonal discrimination and its effects on young adults. Topics in this episode:Interpersonal discrimination (1:43)Adolescents and interpersonal discrimination (6:47)The ah-ha moment (12:39)Research findings (14:33)Frequency and cumulative effect (19:24)Lasting effects (21:45)Implications for health care professionals (25:53)This is our workforce (28:10)A call to action (32:24)Links:Yvonne Lei is a medical student at David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California Los AngelesLei, Yvonne, et al. “Discrimination and subsequent mental health, substance use, and well-being in young adults.” Pediatrics 148.6 (2021).“Discrimination increases risk for mental health issues in young adults, UCLA-led study finds,” by Evelyn Tokuyama, UCLA Newsroom, November 7, 2021Adam B.

Sticks and Stones … But What If Words Do Hurt?

Over the past two decades, and in many cases because of statute of limitations reform, many adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse have come forward to seek justice, disclosing painful memories of traumatic events from decades before. And while, thankfully, the general public has grown in its understanding of how and why abused children might delay disclosure well into adulthood, a question that frequently comes up in legal procedures is: How accurate and reliable are memories of events long past? We speak with renowned memory researcher Gail Goodman, who’s also the director of the Center for Public Policy Research at UC-Davis.Topics in this episode:Understanding trauma and memory (1:40)Misperceptions (4:06)Encoding traumatic memories (8:01)Research on memories after 20 years (12:42)Legal implications (30:25)Public policy (35:04)Future research (37:20)Share this episode (41:04)Links:Professor Gail S.

How Accurate Is Memory After 20 Years?

We&apos;re all too familiar with the statistics and issues around child abuse in the U.S. But what do we really know about violence against children globally? Are there approaches other countries take that we should apply in our country? Are there successes we should emulate and pitfalls to avoid?  And what would it mean if thousands of organizations working to keep kids safe really banded together and demanded government changes to better support families and protect children? Together for Girls, National Children’s Alliance, survivor organizations, and many more are doing just that in the U.S. through the Keep Kids Safe Coalition and its blueprint for federal policy action. We&apos;re tackling all branches of government in a quest to eliminate sexual violence against children and youth.

Prevention, Healing, & Justice: A Blueprint for Action

We’re always very careful to say that poverty doesn’t cause child neglect and abuse. And we don’t want to conflate these things or have people think that we’re blaming people for being poor. Yet we do know that poverty—particularly chronic and extreme poverty—can create an environment in which neglect and child maltreatment can thrive. Given that connection, could investments in anti-poverty programs actually reduce child maltreatment?This is a key question, especially given that rates of neglect have only seen modest reductions in the U.S. over the past 40 years. And it was what Dr. Hank Puls, professor of pediatrics at the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Medicine, set out to research.  Are we missing an opportunity to not only reduce poverty but also the suffering that comes from child maltreatment when we don’t invest heavily enough in these programs?Topics in this episode:A pediatrician determined to reduce child abuse (1:55)State anti-poverty programs (3:24)Costs and benefits (11:00)Advocacy, and inequities (29:01)What do child advocates need?

Do Anti-Poverty Programs Reduce Child Abuse?

In today’s episode, we speak with Dr. James Herbert, senior research fellow at the Australian Center for Child Protection, the first Children’s Advocacy Center (CAC) in Australia. Now, for those of us in the CAC movement or on multidisciplinary teams (MDTs), we sometimes take our work together for granted. The teamwork, the support—the conflict!—and the difficult decisions we make together to protect children. But imagine for a moment coming to that work completely fresh and as a research scientist, as Herbert did, and truly trying to unpack what makes it work.Now, we know that research has established that MDTs create better outcomes in child abuse cases. But what is that secret sauce that does make it work? How do teams make their decisions in these high-stakes cases? And what research is still needed to help us better leverage the combined knowledge and skills of the team? Most importantly, how does improving the understanding of the MDT model help us better serve abused children? Topics in this episode:Getting into child abuse research (1:33)A lack of research on multidisciplinary teams (7:20)Current research on MDT effectiveness (9:34)Barriers to service (what caregivers say vs. what CACs say) (21:35)Government funding for child advocates (27:47)Other research needs (31:24)The EU and the Barnahus model (42:47)Our next episode (45:12)Links:James Herbert, Ph.D., is a senior research fellow at the Australian Centre for Child Protection at the University of South Australia“Better together?

Multidisciplinary Teams: What's the Secret Sauce?

When we first met Dr. Jane Silovsky years ago, talking about youth with problematic sexual behaviors, it was a pervasive myth in the Children’s Advocacy Center world that CACs could not serve these kids. Somehow they weren’t our kids, somehow they weren’t deserving of help, or somehow they just weren’t ours to serve. But 25% to 30% of our cases each year involve sexually abusing or acting out on other kids. To make any difference at all in that work, we have to serve these kids. This is meaningful prevention work. In today’s conversation, we explore what’s normal sexual behavior in youth—a tough question for any parent or any colleague. How do we identify and stop problematic sexual behaviors? What treatment actually works? How do we involve families in their own healing and success? And how do we get beyond billboards and bus kiosks to doing the kind of prevention work that actually matters?Topics in this episode:What is problematic sexual behavior?What causes it?Myths about problematic sexual behaviorThe importance of caregiversDemographics & treatmentPublic policy and CAC advicePut on your oxygen mask firstAvailable resourcesLearn moreLinks:Jane Silovsky, Ph.D., is a professor of pediatrics at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center.

Sexual Behavior in Youth: What's Normal? What's Not? And What Can We Do About It?

Our guest today is Dr. Maegan Rides At The Door, the director of the National Native Children’s Trauma Center at the University of Montana. Now, many of us know at least some of the historical trauma faced by Native Americans and Alaska Native families, not just the genocide of the past, but also the boarding school abuses of the very recent past.How does this impact children today? And how does racism, which is very much in the present, add to the trauma burden these children face? And how do we appreciate and recognize and leverage the incredible strengths and resiliency displayed by Native families multigenerationally? Most importantly, how do we craft culturally responsive services, not just in word and good intention, but in actuality, indeed?Topics in this episode:Child welfare needs to be culturally responsive (2:09)Historical trauma and structural racism (5:47)Cultural resiliency (11:44)Expanding the original ACEs (17:07)Recommendations (19:24)Public policy (25:32)Culture eats strategy for lunch (28:24)Advice for CACs (35:30)Share this episode!

What’s Culture Got to Do With It? Everything.

When we think of military families, we rightly think of sacrifice and duty. But do we also think about resiliency, perseverance, and a sense of community? The unique sense of identity that comes with military service comes with a complex set of supports and struggles for service members. Dr. Stephen Cozza, a researcher and professor at the Uniformed Services University, joins us to explore the unique strengths and challenges of military families. What are the risks and protective factors that we should be aware of in working with military families? How does the phases of deployment and re-entry create some points of unique vulnerabilities that we need to attend to? And at a time when many soldiers are returning, how can we support families?Topics in this episode:An interest in the impact of trauma on military families (1:23)Protective factors (2:52)Risk factors (8:37)Support for military families (13:48)Neglect (24:36)Current research (33:26)CAC-military partnerships (38:52)Learn more about our work (47:07)Links:Stephen J.

Trauma and Resilience in Military Families

Nearly a decade ago, a coalition of national organizations including NCA began strategizing about how to end child abuse fatalities. We passed a bill that established a congressional commission, which issued a report in 2016. Now we&apos;re looking at the successes and challenges of that work. What&apos;s changed, or not, in five years? What about state reforms?

Taking Stock: The Plan to End Child Abuse Deaths, Five Years On

Are we solving the wrong problem in child welfare?  When you think of federal child welfare policy, maybe you expect a discussion of foster care and other post-abuse interventions. If so, this conversation with Jerry Milner, former head of the Children’s Bureau at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, is going to blow your mind. Because after more than 40 years in child welfare, Milner&apos;s leadership of the Children’s Bureau turned a very, very different direction. He explored questions like: What would happen if we turned over our investment and focused on primary prevention instead? And are too many children separated from their parents unnecessarily through foster care? And, more importantly, what role do our own values of equity and belief in family support play not only in the lives of kids but in the life of our public policy? Milner is reimagining the child welfare system of the future. Take a listen.Topics in this episode:Origin story (1:20)Why primary prevention?

Are We Solving the Wrong Problem in Child Welfare?

Years ago, few Americans—even in the field of child abuse—knew or understood child sex trafficking. The media portrayed it as a problem “over there” someplace, far from our shores. Now we know that child sex trafficking is both a global problem and a local one, one that affects children and youth who come across our borders, and youth in schools right down the street. What makes children vulnerable to trafficking, and those who cross our borders especially vulnerable to it? How do we identify those at risk? How do we address the trauma and pain victims of trafficking have survived and carry with them? And perhaps most critically, now that we do know better, how do we do better on this issue? We talk with Dr. Jordan Greenbaum, director of Global Initiative: Child Health and Well-Being at the International Center for Missing and Exploited Children.Topics in this episode:Child sex trafficking is a local problem (1:21)Marginalization and other risk factors (4:26)What CACs can do (11:31)Unintended consequences (14:31)Barriers to referrals (16:43)Core competencies (27:01)A public health approach (29:24)Learn more about our work (37:37)Links:Jordan Greenbaum, MD, is director of the Global Initiative for Child Health and Well-Being at the International Center for Missing and Exploited Children (ICMEC) and an expert on child sex and labor trafficking.Children’s Healthcare of AtlantaFederally qualified health centersNational Human Trafficking Training and Technical Assistance CenterHEAL TraffickingNational Association of Pediatric Nurse Practitioners (NAPNAP)Core Competencies for Human Trafficking Response in Health Care and Behavioral Health Systems (February 2021)For more information about National Children’s Alliance and the work of Children’s Advocacy Centers, visit our website at nationalchildrensalliance.org.

The Trauma They Carried, with Dr. Jordan Greenbaum

If you’ve worked any time at all, then you’ve worked in some place that was unhealthy. Maybe it was full of gossip and backstabbing. Or perhaps there was one disgruntled employee who just made the whole place miserable. Or perhaps you or one of your colleagues was bullied. Toxic workplaces take an emotional toll. They’re exhausting. Draining. Demoralizing.What can we do as leaders to create a healthy workplace culture right from the very start? How do we turn around one that’s developed some sort of trouble spot? And how do we contribute to a healthier and happier workplace through our own attitude and resiliency? In “The Heart of a Healthy Workplace,” speaker, author, and workplace culture consultant Shola Richards talks to us about creating a healthy workplace environment.Topics in this episode:Toxic workplaces (1:25)Leadership: Sink or swim (7:50)Return to the office post-pandemic (10:23)The strongest teams (16:08)Crucial Conversations (22:34)Tough love self-care (32:25)The next normal (39:42)Inclusion and belonging (41:52)Learn more about NCA and CACs (45:06)Links:Shola Richards is the founder and CEO of GoTogether Global and a keynote speaker, coach, and consultant.

Shola Richards on the Heart of a Healthy Workplace

When the Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) Study came out and proved the link between traumas such as child abuse and long-term negative health and mental health impacts, why did the public latch onto some results but not others? Why are people less convinced about the physical health impacts of ACEs than others? What role does political leaning play? And are we messaging some things that are harmful or counter-productive?

The ACEs Message and Its Unintended Consequences, with Dr. Jonathan Purtle

Jenna Quinn was one of the first survivors to translate their experience of abuse into child abuse prevention public policy. Jenna was abused by a close friend of the family, someone known through the Christian school she attended. Her mom was a teacher, and her family very supportive, and yet Jenna, like so many others, became vulnerable to ongoing abuse because she didn’t know who, or how, to tell. And her school, like so many other schools, provided no abuse prevention education to kids or to school personnel. The 2009 Jenna’s Law changed that in Texas and became a model for other efforts. Listen in as we explore how centering the experiences of survivors can translate into important policy solutions, and how survivors can not only survive but experience post-traumatic growth that allows them to thrive.Topics in this episode:Why she spoke up (1:25)Jenna’s Law (8:44)Stigma (12:44)Faith communities and child abuse (15:04)Post-traumatic growth (18:23)What’s next for Jenna (35:44)Advice for CACs (39:45)Next episode (44:53)Links:Jenna Quinn, M.S., champions the passage of Jenna’s Law at the state and federal level to require K-12 schools to educate students, teachers, and caregivers about how to prevent, recognize, and report child sexual abuseJenna Quinn will be the Opening Keynote speaker at our 2021 Leadership Conference on June 7Children’s Advocacy Center for North Texas (Denton County)SANE (sexual assault nurse examiner)Warning signs of child sexual abuse (#ItsYourBusiness)Darkness to Light has many prevention resources#ChurchToo (similar hashtags are in use for other religions)Victor Vieth; see also our earlier interview with him, “Faith, Trauma, and the Problem of Evil” (May 13, 2019)Post-traumatic growth (PTG), Richard G.

The Journey to Jenna's Law, with Jenna Quinn

When we think about Alaska, we think of Denali, pictures we’ve seen, movies we’ve watched, the wonderful wildlife, and people still living on the cusp of the frontier. But what films don’t always show, and what books don’t always cover, is the incredible challenges of this environment: the high rates of trauma, the high rates of addiction, the high rates of suicide, and the high rates of child abuse. How do you help families identify the root causes of trauma and truly heal?  We talk to Patrick Anderson, CEO of RurAL CAP, about the nexus of a brutal truth and enduring hope.Topics in this episode:Working in Alaska (1:26)Toxic stress (7:47)Historical trauma (12:57)The fear response (17:48)Six step healing hypothesis (26:28)Whole community healing (38:28)Two generation response (42:33)The Stockdale paradox: Brutal truth and enduring hope (46:10)Links:Patrick M.
