Children and youth who have experienced foster care have often experienced complex  developmental trauma. Trust based parenting teaches caregivers to provide effective support in the development of   safety, the promotion of healing relationships, and teaching of self-management and coping skills.

Join us for this new and exciting class based on the book, The Connected Child and the principles of  Empowerment- attention to physical needs; Connection- attention to attachment needs; and   Correction- attention to behavioral needs. These principles help both caregivers and children learn healthy ways of interacting which can aid in the child’s healing process.

Light lunch will be provided and each family will receive a free copy of The Connected Child. 

Instructors: Denise Phipps, MFT &  Jeanne Schwertfeger, Foster/Adoptive Parent Trainer
