SUMMARY:Interviewing Children with Disabilities - Part II
DESCRIPTION:This training is intended for forensic interviewers who want to learn how to communicate with individuals who do not speak or who are considered “non-verbal.” This workshop will discuss adaptations to account for individuals who do not speak\, use gestures\, use a communication device\, or speak few words. Participants will have increased understanding of verbal behavior and communication methods; increased knowledge of communication considerations when interviewing someone who does not speak; and learn reliable and legally defensible techniques that can be applied in interviews. \nPresenter: Staci Whitney\, LMSW with Modell Consulting Group  \nStaci Whitney\, LMSW is the Senior Director for Modell Consulting Group\, LLC (MCG).
