The Navajo Nation Division of Social Services is offering a training on “Identifying and Reporting Child Abuse” to all the local schools in our service area.  This training would include topics on identifying signs of neglect/ abuse (including physical, emotional, and sexual abuse), reporting procedures, suicide, and NDSS policies as they relate to your school.

 This training is highly recommended for teachers, counselors, school social workers, administrators, and all other staff who work directly with children. The Division feels that training in these areas would benefit both your staff and Social Services, as a better understanding of NNDSS polices and your school’s needs/ concerns would be established.

School Administrators can contact me, Leandrew Sixkiller, at (928) 697-5643/ 5530, to schedule a training session. All trainings are free of charge. Thank you…and wishing you all another successful school year!!
