The manual covers key topics such as human trafficking vulnerabilities, trauma-informed stress management, parenting support strategies, and caregiver-child relationship building. The training emphasizes a survivor-centered approach and includes modules, practical exercises, and customizable materials for both in-person and online delivery.
