An evidence-based treatment model to help caregivers of youth who have experienced multiple traumas in their lives.
Do you care for a youth who has experienced abuse or neglect, lived in multiple homes, or even been hospitalized? Perhaps you are a professional working with youth who have experienced these. If you said yes, TBRI® might be what you are looking for. This program is designed to help support caregivers of all types: biological parents, relatives, foster parents, and professionals.
Trust Based Relational Intervention® (TBRI®) is an evidence-based parenting and intervention model developed by Dr. Karyn Purvis and Dr. David Cross at the Karyn Purvis Institute of Child Development (KPICD) at Texas Christian University (TCU). TBRI® has been built on a solid foundation of neuropsychological theory and research, tempered by humanitarian principles. It is a family-based intervention, designed for children who have experienced relationship-based traumas such as institutionalization, multiple foster placements, maltreatment, abuse, and/or neglect.
Specialized Alternatives to Families and Youth (SAFY) is partnering with Raise the Future and Larimer County to bring TBRI® free of charge twice in 2022. The first series will be presented in April 2022 via zoom. To be eligible for this FREE event, you simply need to live in or provide services to children in Larimer County, Colorado.
If you are not sure if TBRI® is for you or if you want to learn more about how this approach can help you, do not hesitate to reach out to SAFY at 970-494-5891 or email Kimberly Sworn at [email protected].
