Description
Season 1: It Takes A Podcast: Conversations on PSB with the Experts Episode 6: Julie Donelon Jimmy Widdifield Jr. hosts a conversation with Julie Donelon, President and CEO of MOCSA (Metropolitan Organization to Counter Sexual Assault) in Kansas City, Missouri. In this episode, Donelon talks about her background as a child abuse and neglect investigator and forensic interviewer and what the impetus was for her to identify and get children with PSB referred into the system. She discusses utilizing her existing relationships with community partners to develop an effective response once a child is referred and witnessing firsthand the overwhelming benefits to treating children with PSB and their families as opposed to adjudicating these cases in family courts. Donelson also talks about how a change in state statute changed the way these cases were reported and how agencies responded. Julie Donelon, MSW, is the current President and CEO of the Metropolitan Organization to Counter Sexual Assault (MOCSA) in Kansas City, Missouri. Donelon was instrumental in MOCSA obtaining a grant through OJJDP to provide education and training around PSB to mandated reporters, Child Protective Services, and MDTs throughout the state of Missouri. She has more than 20 years experience in the field of child abuse and sexual violence, including a background in social work and experience as a Forensic Interviewer at the Child Protection Center CAC in Kansas City.
