Assignment 3: Traumatic Events Issues
The school district has many students who have experienced, or are in the process of experiencing, traumatic events. These events involve physical, sexual, and mental abuse, as well as abandonment issues. The district wants your help in identify- ing such children by learning more about the common indicators of such abuse and the links that this abuse plays in leading to delinquency and crime. They specifically want direction with respect to federal laws and your state’s laws applicable to this problem and the options available to help address this most serious threat.
Your school district, like many other districts, has a problem with student substance abuse. They’re interested in targeting these students and in applying the latest methods of inter- vention, prevention, and treatment. These methods include community education, after-school programs, counseling, and detoxification programs.
Finally, the school district wants to receive information on the problem of youth suicide, including warning signs to watch for and proactive plans to put into place.
