2025-03-12 17:00 - 18:00 (America/Chicago) | Online Webinar
The online track is best suited for individuals who want flexibility, have limited business hour availability, and/or those who prefer virtual learning.
In this track, you will complete your education over a four-week period. In addition to pre- and post-tests to assess your learning, each week you will participate in a required, pre-scheduled check-in with our education facilitators. You can choose between a 5:00 p.m. check-in series, a 9:00 a.m. check-in series, or a Noon check-in series. However, you must remain with the one check-in series of your choice.
You should plan on attending the full hour of each class. If you cannot, you may be marked as absent. The expectation is you are engaged with your camera on. Please be in a private space and not driving during the check-in.
If you cannot adhere to these expectations, we encourage you to look into our Hybrid and In-Person class options.

TBRI® Training
2025-04-11 10:00 - 16:30 | Online Webinar
TBRI® is an attachment-based, informed intervention that is designed to meet the complex needs of children. TBRI® uses Empowering Principles to address physical needs, Connecting Principles for attachment needs, and Correcting Principles to disarm fear-based behaviors. While the intervention is based on years of attachment, sensory processing, and neuroscience research, the heartbeat of TBRI® is connection.
A foundation of TBRI® concepts is important for further understanding; therefore, the TBRI®: Introduction & Overview is a pre-requisite for any of the other courses (Empowering, Connecting and Correcting). Once the initial TBRI® Introduction & Overview class is completed, families may complete the other sessions in any order.

Session 1: TBRI® Introduction & Overview*
In this class, we will:

Lay a foundation for insight
Create a practical framework for intervention and application
Enhance understanding regarding

Interpreting behavior
Responding appropriately with the TBRI® Principles (Empowering, Connecting, and Correcting)

*This is a prerequisite and must be completed before taking any additional sessions.

Webinar: Trauma-Informed Parenting: Helping Heal the Deepest Wounds
2025-04-22 13:00 - 14:30 | Online Webinar
Join Us for a Webinar: Trauma-Informed Parenting: Helping Heal the Deepest Wounds
Tuesday, April 22, 2025, from 1:00-2:30 p.m. (CT)
“All you need is love,” says The Beatles’ tune. For kids with significant adverse childhood experiences, however, love may have resulted in just as much pain as protection. Separated from their parents, the very same defenses that helped them survive then become a barrier to getting the love they need to thrive. Caregivers are confused by the love/hate relationships traumatized youth have with them, affectionate one minute and rejecting the next. It is easy to feel helpless and defeated when youth do not seem to trust the connection enough to drop their defenses, especially when situations escalate. Before reaching the intersection of fatigue and frustration, however, we can take a different approach – TLC with TIP! Let’s explore what it looks like to give the tender, loving care kids in foster care need with a trauma-informed parenting approach, and what it takes to hang in there when the loving gets tough!
Presented by Susan K. Taylor: Piedmont Coordinator, Consortium for Resource, Adoptive, and Foster Family Training (CRAFFT), Radford University.
Susan Katherine Taylor has been at Radford University since 2011, as a training coordinator with the Consortium for Resource, Adoptive, and Foster Family Training (CRAFFT). She has worked with kids of all ages and families of all circumstances, and has volunteered with Child Care Aware of Virginia for many years, believing that all caregivers need to be informed about attachment, trauma, and meeting kids’ needs in a complex world. She has an interdisciplinary bachelor’s degree from Davidson College in Psychology and Sociology and graduated with honors from The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, where she obtained her Master of Science in Child & Family Studies. She has post-graduate work from The School of Life, where she majors in humor and humility, with minors in love, loss, and letting go – accumulated over three decades of work with children and those who care for them, and 25 years as a kinship caregiver.
This webinar will take place on Zoom, and it will be recorded. You will receive the link to join after registering below.

You likely do your best to try and prevent these from happening, yet they still do. Participants in this session will walk away with practical de-escalation strategies to use with kids of all ages, as well as helping kids (and yourself!) through them with calm confidence.
