Connection groups provide caregivers a space to connect with others on the same journey of understanding our children’s behaviors and how to meet their needs. This is intended to be a safe place that caregivers for parents to be comfortable sharing their struggles, challenges and, be open to learning about how to implement TBRI® principles in their homes. Connection groups will offer time to collaborate with others as well as our TBRI® practitioners to work through behavioral problems and discuss monthly topics such as nurture group activities, transitions, and the IDEAL response.
*Participants must have attended TBRI® Introduction.
About TBRI®:
Trust Based Relational Intervention® (TBRI®) is a parenting and intervention model developed by Dr. Karyn Purvis and Dr. David Cross at the TCU Institute of Child Development. TBRI® is based on a solid foundation of neuropsychological theory and research, tempered by humanitarian principles. It is a family-based intervention that is designed for children who have experienced relationship-based traumas such as institutionalization, multiple foster placements, maltreatment, and/or neglect.
Kendal Sarnecky and Tayler Wiese studied under Dr. David Cross and the team at the TCU Karyn Purvis Institute of Child Development. The training will utilize the TBRI® curriculum developed by the Institute. Kendal and Tayler received advanced training regarding this curriculum and are qualified as TBRI® Practitioners to present the content and facilitate the Implementation and Connection Group.
