Achievement Award ProgramThe San Bernardino County Public Defender’s Office, in partnership with Children’s Network, has created and facilitated a three-hour interactive training for San Bernardino County Probation Officers. The training is designed to bring awareness, education, and offer fundamental tools on how to engage with complex trauma youth, and more specifically, the CSEC (Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children) population.

This project was requested in June of 2021, probations training department secured STC certification in November of 2021, and the first official training was executed in February of 2022.
