Families get the support they need – when and where they need it. There is a focus on prevention and health; organizations and systems are connected in a synergistic sanctuary community that generates: Non –violence, Growth and Change, Democracy, Emotional intelligence, Social learning, Open communication, and Social Responsibility.Our investment in the future of each child means that the next generation of Oregonians will have the skills to contribute meaningfully through employment, community service, and raising their own healthy families.

Trillium Family Services

Trillium Family Services is proud to offer an introductory training workshop in the Collaborative Problem Solving (CPS) approach based on the book “Treating the Explosive Child” (Ablon, Greene).  Presented by Think:Kids certified professional trainer Elizabeth McMahan, LCSW.
This day long introductory training is intended for educators, mental health clinicians, parents, and community partners.  Relationally based, CPS views challenging behavior as a learning disability of some very crucial cognitive (thinking) skills necessary to handle the demands of everyday life and not the result of a child’s willfulness or poor parenting.  Through a more empathetic and accurate understanding of what is getting in a child’s way, we (educators, parents, clinicians) are better able to intervene to support children through a collaborative process of teaching skills and solving problems.  For more information about the CPS model visit: <A HREF="http://www.thinkkids.org/" TARGET="_blank" TITLE="www.thinkkids.org" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">www.thinkkids.org</A>.
