36th Annual Children's Network Conference
2022-09-14 08:00 - 17:00 | DoubleTree Ontario Airport Hotel, 222 N Vineyard Ave, Ontario, CA, 91764, United States
As the Child Abuse Prevention Council of San Bernardino County, Children’s Network works with community and County partners to develop collaborative partnerships that focus on educating and increasing awareness efforts to reduce the rates of child abuse and neglect in the County. We coordinate preventative programs and services to strengthen and promote child, family, and community well-being.
Children’s Network will be hosting our 36th Annual Conference at the DoubleTree Hotel Ontario Airport on September 14, 2022.
This year’s conference will provide 15 educational workshops to health care professionals, behavioral health clinicians, childcare providers, social workers, community based organizations, educators, foster parents, law enforcement and safety personnel. Some topics that will be covered are: trauma-informed care, suicide prevention, the opioid crisis, connecting with LBGTQIA+ clients, positive and adverse childhood experiences, empowering youth through the art, and much more.
Our morning keynote speaker, Regina Louise, was most recently awarded the United States Department of Human Services Individual Achievement Award for reducing the number of minority children in foster care through adoption, and the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors honored her in for her service in helping Los Angeles County foster youth.
Our afternoon plenary speaker, Dr. Uribe serves as the Director of Community Health at the Inland Empire Health Plan (IEHP) and as a Professor of Social Work Policy at La Sierra University. IEHP is a not-for-profit public entity, rapidly growing Medi-Cal and Medicare health plan in California. With a network of more than 7,000 Providers and 2,500 employees, IEHP serves over 1.5 million residents of California’s Riverside and San Bernardino counties who are enrolled in Medi-Cal, and Cal MediConnect (Medicare-Medicaid Plan). Dr. Uribe oversees operations of IEHP’s Community Resource Centers, Community Health Worker program and diversity services.

Fatherhood Summit
2022-06-18 09:00 - 12:00 | Fontana Lewis Library and Technology Center, 8437 Sierra Ave., Fontana, CA, 92335, United States
On behalf of the Inland Empire Father Involvement Coalition (IEFIC), we would like to invite you to this year’s Fatherhood Summit! The Inland Empire Fatherhood Summit will be a celebration of fatherhood in the month of June in efforts to highlight fatherhood awareness as proclaimed by our San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors. The IE Fatherhood Summit will showcase fun activities for father and child, guest speaker and opportunity drawings. The virtual summit also aims to inspire, educate, and equip fathers and father-figures to be actively engaged in their children’s lives. We would like to connect fathers and families to the pipeline to success by sharing resources needed to meet current needs.

Fathers who are engaged and present make a real difference in their children’s lives. Children who are raised by involved fathers are sixty percent less likely to be suspended or expelled from school, 2x as likely to go to college and find stable employment after high school, seventy-five percent less likely to have a teen birth, and eighty percent less likely to spend time in jail. Fathers who are present in their child’s life are capable caretakers of their young toddlers, support the development of their children, collaborate in their partner’s positive parenting efforts, add to the overall health and wellness of the family, and experience beneficial improvements in their own developments and life.

Perinatal Mental Health - What to Know and How to Help
2022-05-11 09:00 - 12:00
Parents and caregivers may experience a range of challenges as they welcome a child into their home that can lead to mental and emotional distress. Included in these challenges are perinatal mental health disorders.
This 3-hour training will present foundational information on perinatal mental health for hospital and community healthcare providers. In this training, we will review expectations, social stigmas, and barriers to care that impact mental health during the transition to parenthood.
As well, we will review risk factors, impact of perinatal mental health disorders on babies and the developing child and co-occurring issues like substance use and intimate partner violence. Experts, Gabrielle Kaufman, LPCC, BC-DMT ,NCC ,PMH-C and Anna King, LCSW, PMH-C, will also review the differential diagnoses of perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs) and treatment recommendations, including during the screening and assessment phase. Participants will learn how to apply this knowledge within their respective area of practice through an interactive lecture and case examples.
3 continuing education credit for LMFTs, LPCCs, LCSWs, LEPs, and psychologists through the Board of Behavioral Sciences (BBS) in the state of CA available at no cost.

PACES: Positive and Adverse Childhood Experiences Training
2022-04-28 09:00 - 11:00
Positive and Adverse Childhood Experiences (PACE) acknowledges that adverse childhood experiences and positive childhood experiences work together, for our entire lives. Discussions on ACEs have always included information on resilience, but only addressed it as a mitigating factor in overcoming the effects of ACEs. Joining adverse and positive experiences better reflects the direction this movement has been going. In this training we will discuss:
• What prompted this new movement
• Integration of trauma-informed care, strengthening families and protective factors
• Power of positive experiences
