Are you looking for parenting strategies to help you address your child's trauma history?

Trust-Based Relational Intervention® (TBRI®), is an emerging intervention model developed by Dr. Karyn Purvis and Dr. David Cross (authors of the popular book "The Connected Child") at the TCU Institute of Child Development.

The second workshop of the series will focus on the TBRI ® principle "Connecting."

The goals for this workshop are to: 

• understand what secure attachment looks like between children and caregivers, 
• learn helpful ways to help build a connection with children who come from hard places, 
• understand the impact attachment history can have on children's behavior, 
• gain awareness about how our own attachment history influences the way we parent, 
• and learn appropriate proactive strategies to empower children with behavioral tools

Workshop fee: $35 per person; includes workbook; 30 people maximum;
CEU's for LSW/LCSW for additional $10; forms for foster family DCFS self-submission training credits available; no child care provided. Register by Tuesday, February 17, 2014; no refunds for participant cancellation; lunch: pre-order or bring your own.
