About TBRI:

TBRI® is an evidence-based caregiving intervention that is designed to meet the complex needs of children from hard places of abuse, neglect, and/or trauma. TBRI® empowers caregivers and professionals to create within their homes and practices cultures of felt-safety, trust, attachment, and, ultimately, hope and healing. The training will help attendees better understand the needs of children with trauma histories and consider some tools and strategies that maximize their potential for growth in our care.

About the Facilitators:

The training will be facilitated by Jonathan Reid and Mike Brown of Fostering Hope, an organization that empowers churches and individuals to care for children and families impacted by foster care. Practitioners in the trauma-informed Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI®) and Trauma Competent Caregiver® (TCC) care models, Jonathan and Mike speak honestly as they continue to learn and apply these principles not only in their training but also in their homes as foster and adoptive fathers.

Cost:

The cost of this training is covered by funds from the Massachusetts Court Improvement Program and is offered free of charge to Massachusetts Pre-adoptive and adoptive families through DCF or a contracted agency. Registrations will be on a first-come-first-served basis.
