Description: This training centers around the realities surrounding youth who run away while in foster care. Participants will learn about the history of youth who run away from the foster care system and the push and pull involved in this action. Participants will work to assess the vulnerabilities of youth in their care along with learning the increased vulnerabilities for a youth who runs away from their foster home. Then, participants will develop some tools to implement in preventing youth from running away as well as learn some intervention techniques in the case that a youth they care for does run away. Lastly, they will highlight some resources and action plans that families can implement with their foster youth.

**This qualifies for Group Credit through HHS (like in-person classes)
