As National Forensic Interviewers Week comes to a close, we're celebrating the people behind this important work. 💛

Forensic interviewing is more than a profession; it's a commitment to helping children feel heard, supported, and safe during some of the most difficult moments of their lives.

This week, we asked our forensic interviewers one simple question:
What inspired you to become a forensic interviewer?

These answers reflect a shared passion for advocating for children, supporting families, and making a meaningful difference in our community. Every interview is an opportunity to listen without judgment, provide a child with a safe space to share their story, and help begin the path toward healing.

Thank you to our incredible forensic interviewers for your compassion, expertise, and unwavering dedication. Your work changes lives every day, and we are grateful to have you as part of the Sunflower House team. 💛

Happy National Forensic Interviewers Week!
Q&A: How do forensic interviewers help children feel comfortable during an interview? 💛

Every child deserves to feel safe, heard, and respected.

Before talking about difficult topics, forensic interviewers spend time building rapport. They explain what to expect using age-appropriate language, encourage children to speak in their own words, and let them know it's okay to say, "I don't know," or "I don't understand."

Interview rooms are intentionally designed to feel welcoming rather than intimidating, helping children feel as comfortable as possible. Throughout the conversation, interviewers remain patient, neutral, and supportive, allowing children to share at their own pace.

Creating an environment where children feel safe to speak is one of the most important parts of the process.
