Recording from August 26, 2024 Live Ask the Expert Webinar: Ask the Expert: Overcoming Stigma In Reentry And Mental Health Disorders Previous webinars have discussed racial biases and the stigma related to substance use and mental health disorders, potential solutions to advocate for reform to address systemic biases in the criminal justice system, and the link between historical trauma and substance use and mental health disorders.

This fast-paced two-day course equips law enforcement and multidisciplinary partners to build and sustain an effective Child Abduction Response Team (CART). Participants will examine offender behavior, abducted and lost child dynamics, team structure, deployment planning, legal considerations, and victim services—while analyzing how each element impacts recovery outcomes. Throughout the course, participants complete a CART Implementation Worksheet to document their agency’s resources, plans, key partners, and equipment—creating a practical roadmap for team development. The training culminates in a realistic, interactive readiness assessment that tests decision-making, coordination, and team preparedness through a time-critical missing child scenario. Success in the final exercise depends on how well participants apply what they’ve learned. Participants leave with not only a plan—but the experience of having tested it in a race against the clock to bring a child home safely.
