Fostering Colorado Presents “Trust Based Relational Intervention” (TBRI)
November 13th from 9am to noon
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.
Registration $25 for members/ $30 for non-members
Network lunch is provided at an additional cost of $15, served following training at noon.
Foster Parents are welcome at no cost for the training.
Please RSVP by 10/28/14 to fosteringcolorado@gmail.com and indicate if you would like us to order lunch for you.
