Be the Voice for a Child in Need through Child Advocacy

黑洞社区’s Child Advocacy certificate is a program vital for anyone working with children: teachers, nurses, medical personnel, caseworkers, clergy, or law enforcement. But it extends beyond those professionals. You’ll build skills that can give you greater opportunities, because everyone who has or knows any child can benefit from this program. Our goal? To equip you with the knowledge to become an effective advocate in the fight to eliminate child abuse.


Learn from leaders in the child advocacy field

You’ll learn to recognize the varying forms of child abuse, the reporting requirements and the investigation processes through courses taught by practicing professionals with significant experience in the field, in the hopes of eliminating child abuse. WilmU is one of an elite group of academic pioneers offering courses in child abuse recognition and investigation.

Build valuable child advocacy skills to stop child abuse

Develop the skills to recognize symptoms and effects of child maltreatment, identify intervention strategies, and conduct investigative interviews. You’ll also learn how to respond and investigate mistreatment and be prepared to intervene. Two electives will tailor the program to your career goals and interests.

Apply your child advocacy certificate towards numerous degrees

The courses you’ll complete can also be applied towards programs like behavioral sciences, criminal justice, education studies, psychology, and R.N. to BSN. This permits you to customize your education and add value to your education without adding extra time or cost.
