Understanding Aggression at Home

This webinar will focus on a concerning issue – Aggression toward Family or Caregivers in Childhood and Adolescence or AFCCA. This is a pattern of behaviour where a child or young person engages in aggressive acts aimed at family members or caregivers. This can cause significant physical and/or psychological harm to the child or young person, the family member or caregiver toward whom the behaviour is directed, as well as other family members. Join Interwoven Connection clinicians during this webinar focused on how to understand this form of aggressive behaviour, ways to consider managing at home, and where to get help.
