CLEARFIELD – Lock Haven Clearfield, part of Commonwealth University, and the Mature Resources Area Agency on Aging will host two Life-long Learning Institute programs during the month of March.
The first program, presented by Dr. Mary Tatum, director of the Child Advocacy Center in Clearfield, will be held on Tuesday, March 14 from 1 p.m. -2:30 p.m. in the Academic Building, Room A131.
Tatum will discuss the importance of implementing a trauma-informed response for child abuse investigations.
This presentation will cover how the Multi-Disciplinary Investigation Team (MDIT) of Clearfield County responds to child abuse investigations and how the Child Advocacy Center (CAC) of Clearfield County supports this process.
Kirby, the CAC-CC’s facility dog, will also accompany Tatum for the presentation.

The presentation will be held from 1 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. in the Academic Building, Room A131.
The pros and possible cons to such a merger will be discussed, along with the progress that has been made up to this point.
