NCA Learning: NCA Training Refund Policy

Join your CAC Executive Director (ED) colleagues for this exciting training opportunity. CAC EDs lead the charge for positioning CACs to meet NCA’s Mental Health Accreditation Standards. Many ED’s do not have a mental health background which can create challenges. NCA is excited to announce this training opportunity for EDs to learn about developing and sustaining high quality mental health programs at your CACs. 

About The Project

A total of 50 Executive Directors from CACs will be accepted into this training. Not only will you learn about mental health, but you will also be able to help shape future iterations of the training through feedback to the trainers. In 2021, NCA convened a Mental Health Standard Revision Committee of 20 individuals from Regional CACs, CACs, and subject-matter experts to make recommendations for the new Mental Health standard that went into effect in January 2023 to support the expanded NCA mission of healing for all children seen at CACs. This training will support CAC Executive Directors in the successful implementation of the 2023 NCA Mental Health standard.

The training will be delivered in three-3 hour live interactive webinars. There will be approximately 1-2 hours of outside work to prepare for the next webinar. It is important that you complete the work between webinars to be an effective participant with your colleagues during the interactive portion of the webinars.

• October 23, 2025
• October 30, 2025
• November 20, 2025

What You’ll Learn
Through this training, EDs will learn:

• NCA’s 2023 Mental Health Accreditation Standard and strategies for successful implementation at your CAC.

• Mental Health Roadmap to meeting the Accreditation Standard and providing quality mental health services for children and families served.

• Evidence-Based Treatments (EBTs) recognized by NCA and training requirements.

• Conducting a community-based mental health gap analysis to determine areas of concern in your CAC’s mental health response and what EBT is needed to add to your community/CAC’s menu of services.

• The importance of collecting and documenting of accurate data and how that data can be used to inform service delivery and to seek funding for mental health services.

• The MDT’s role in mental health service delivery.

• The role of the Victim Advocate in engaging children and families in care.

• Mental health collaborations to increase the number of linkage agreements.

• The importance of collaboration between VAs and MH providers in the delivery of mental health services.

• Opportunities to collaborate with other EDs from CACs across the country and to learn about strategies that other CACs are using to successfully meet the NCA MH Accreditation Standard 

If you would like a hard copy of the workbook, please send Jami, jbolton@nca-online.org, your shipping address no later than Friday October 4th

This live virtual training will take place July 15, 17, 22, and 24 from 12:00pm-4:00pm EDT with Ashley Fiore, MSW, LCSW. This will be an interactive and participatory training experience with pre-work and action period assignments that build participants’ skills at implementing AF-CBT. This training has been approved for 14 CEs through NASW and NBCC.

Alternatives for Families: A Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (AF-CBT; www.afcbt.org), is an intervention to improve family relationships for those experiencing high conflict/coercion, harsh/punitive discipline, child physical abuse, and/or child behavior problems.

Alternatives for Families: A Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (AF-CBT) is a trauma-informed, evidence-based intervention designed to improve the relationship between children and their caregivers by addressing individual and family problems relating to: 
     • Family conflicts   
     • Behavior problems, including physical aggression
     • Anger and verbal aggression, including emotional abuse
     • Harsh physical discipline, physical aggression, or child physical abuse, or
     • Child trauma-related symptoms secondary to any of the above

These patterns may be shown by an individual caregiver or a child/adolescent, and/or by the family.   Therefore, AF-CBT targets the caregiver, child/adolescent, and the larger family context. 

AF-CBT involves three phases of treatment:
     1) Engagement and Psychoeducation, 2) Individual skills building, 3) Family applications.

Who is Appropriate for AF-CBT?
AF-CBT is appropriate for a broad range of families. The following general criteria have been developed to facilitate the identification of families who may benefit from this intervention.

BACKGROUND CRITERIA
     • A child, age 5-17, can participate now or soon
     • A caregiver (e.g., biological, adoptive, foster, or kin) can participate now or soon
     • Both caregiver and child have an adequate capacity or repertoire to learn/benefit from AF-CBT
CLINICAL CRITERIA
     • The Family has frequent conflict(s) and/or arguments OR
     • A Caregiver shows anger (hostility), uses physical force/discipline (coercion), and/or has allegation/history of child physical abuse OR
     • A Child shows anger, has behavior problems (e.g., defiance, aggression, explosiveness), has trauma symptoms/PTSD after physical discipline/abuse, and/or has prior exposure to harsh discipline/physical abuse
A case is eligible if ALL 3 Background Criteria and 1 Clinical Criterion are met.

Objectives:

1. Describe the intervention model and its content to families in a manner that engages and motivates treatment participation.

2. Implement specific techniques to decrease parent and child aggression, family conflict, and child PTSD symptoms related to physical violence (e.g., complete no-force agree-ment, safety planning, imaginal exposure).

3. Initiate discussions about abusive/aggressive experiences with children and caregivers and follow up with social skills training, social support planning, positive family commu-nication, problem-solving routines, and child behavior management training.

Providers
Prospective AF-CBT trainees must be mental health professionals with a Master's degree or higher. Trainees are asked to commit to implementing AF-CBT with at least 2 families during the course of the training year so they should have an active caseload ready to apply the model. 
AF-CBT should be conducted by individuals who have been formally trained in the model and who are familiar with the content, methods, assessments, and fidelity tools that are required to ensure effective implementation.

Data Collection: This training is offered at a greatly reduced cost. Participants are required to submit monthly data on clients served. More information will be provided.

Pre-Requisite:
There is a free 2.5 hour pre-requisite video course, “Foundations of AF-CBT” which must be completed prior to training. You may access this here  https://learn.nctsn.org/enrol/...
