Description

Children with cognitive and communication disabilities are at higher risk for being abused yet have limited access to evidence-based trauma treatment. In a focus group with clinicians they identified a lack of resources for working with this population. A matrix guide of iPad APPs was developed to assist clinicians implementing Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with these children. This poster will be accompanied by the iPad APPs evaluated.
