2 Day Court Preparation & Court Accompaniment Training

Our intensive two-day, in-person training program equips community professionals with the practical skills and confidence required to effectively support children and families navigating court proceedings.

Developed to address the need for structured and developmentally appropriate preparation, the Child Witness Court Preparation model helps reduce anxiety, improve understanding of court processes, and support meaningful participation by child witnesses.

This classroom-based training is practical, interactive, and skills-driven. Through expert instruction, guided discussion, and applied role-play scenarios, participants gain hands-on experience using child-centred preparation and accompaniment strategies.

Upon completion, professionals leave equipped with:

• Proven preparation frameworks and facilitation tools
• Trauma-informed accompaniment strategies
• Ready-to-use materials for child, teen, and caregiver sessions
• Increased confidence in supporting vulnerable witnesses

The CCAA remains committed to closing service gaps and strengthening community capacity. Geography should never determine the level of preparation a child receives. By partnering with local agencies, we help ensure that every child, whether in urban centres or remote communities, has equitable access to high-quality court preparation and support.

Partner with us to strengthen your team and ensure children are prepared, protected, and empowered throughout the justice process.
