How to sign up as a network member
There is an online membership registration form (please see the link below). It will take you about 10 minutes to complete the registration form.
Once your registration information has been confirmed, your user name and password will be activated and you will have full access to the site, including logging in to the members-only area. You will receive an email letting you know when this has happened. This may take up to several weeks, depending on the number of registrations we need to process at any one time.
When you sign up you will be asked to provide:
• Your basic professional information
• Your primary area(s) of practice
• The settings in which you link with children and adolescents who have experienced trauma, loss or grief
• Your primary role(s)
• The sector(s) in which you are currently working or training to work.
From time to time we will also ask you additional 'networking' information.
We ask three questions at the time you sign up to become a member. Your responses to these will help bring together stakeholders already working in the area of child and adolescent trauma, loss and grief. Your local knowledge of individuals and organisations can provide an essential contribution to the development of the network.
Describing your area(s) of practice
A classification of the areas of practice where stakeholders address issues across the range of child and adolescent trauma, loss and grief experiences has not previously been defined. User-generated categories were developed using data from the feasibility study to produce a synthesis of responses to the open-ended question regarding the respondents’ main areas of expertise together with their organisational details. If none of these categories fit please describe your area of practice in the ‘other’ category. We will use these to refine the categories of areas of practice.
Please keep us informed
The value of the members' directory depends on our database being up-to-date.
If you change jobs, please send us details of your new role and contact details so we can update the directory.
We will contact members every six months to see if member information has changed.
