The Texas Institute for Child and Family Wellbeing invites foster and adoptive caregivers to attend a virtual workshop on Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI). This virtual workshop covers 8-hours of content across four days (2-hour sessions). Registrants are encouraged to attend all 4 days to receive full insight.
TBRI is an attachment-based, trauma-informed intervention that is designed to meet the complex needs of vulnerable children (Karyn Purvis Institute of Child Development website). This interactive, 8-hour workshop will provide participants with an introduction to TBRI, Correcting, Empowering, and Connecting approach as developed by Dr. Karyn Purvis and Dr. David Cross. Certificates of completion will be provided.
