Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly prevalent in the delivery of services to children and families. AI is being used to conduct client risk assessments, assist people in crisis, strengthen prevention efforts, record clinical notes, identify systemic biases in the delivery of social services, provide professional education, and predict practitioner burnout and service outcomes, among other uses. This webinar will examine cutting-edge ethical issues related to practitioners’ use of AI; apply relevant ethical standards; and outline elements of a strategy for practitioners’ ethical use of AI.

Services for children and families come with myriad ethical challenges.  In this webinar, Dr. Frederic Reamer will explore complex ethical issues and practical strategies designed to protect clients, practitioners, and employing organizations.  The webinar will include challenging ethics cases and explore practical steps that professionals can take to manage ethical issues skillfully.
