Some 88% of children entering into the Kentucky
foster care system have drug involved parents. Assessment of these
homes can be difficult because addicts become skilled at hiding the
realities of their home from others so substance abuse can continue.
The roles "don't talk, don't trust, and don't feel" make it exceedingly
difficult for children to receive the interventions they need even when
they are of age to ask for help. This session will explore with you
some fundamental characteristics of a drug home, discuss issues to
consider during an investigation and create ways to meet the needs of
the drug endangered child.

Have you sat with your clients and no matter what
they say or do or accomplish, they still are "stuck" with the old
messages that they took on in childhood? Shirley Jean Schmidt, www.DNMSInstitute.com
has developed a wonderful protocol that works like light speed to get
your clients totally unstuck and live in their present full
capabilities. It is an ego state therapy based on the assumption that
the degree to which developmental needs were not adequately met is the
degree to which a client is stuck in childhood. Special attention is
given to unmet attachment needs, which are considered the most
important of all the developmental needs. The DNMS focuses on healing
maladaptive introjects (child ego states that mimic abusive,
neglectful, or dysfunctional caregivers).
