This webinar will focus on the underlying mental illness associated with hoarding behavior, the clinical definition of hoarding disorder and its impact in child welfare. We will explore potential safety and risk factors in homes with hoarding conditions.

Participants will be exposed to simple screening tools for use when hoarding is a concern. Suggestions for interacting with individuals with hoarding behaviors will be examined in order to enhance engagement and motivation for initial and long-term behavior change. Guest speakers from state and municipal agencies will discuss local and state laws and how to partner to collaboratively safety plan to mitigate issues related to issues including egress and fire hazards. Other local and state resources for intervention and treatment of hoarding disorder will also be explored.
