SUMMARY:ALLIANCE - Trust-Based Relational Intervention:  Introduction and Overview to TBRI
DESCRIPTION:Part1 of 2 \nTBRI® (Trust-Based Relational Intervention) is an attachment-based\, trauma-informed intervention that is designed to meet the complex needs of vulnerable children. This course is an overview designed to give you exposure to all parts of TBRI® by highlighting the ways in which each section of the intervention strategy fits into the holistic nature of TBRI®. The first few activities provide an opportunity for you to become comfortable with each other\, share successes and challenges with each other\, and become familiar with the basic ideas of TBRI®. \nInstructor Qualification:\n\n\nFrom the Karyn Purvis Institute of Child Development on Trust-Based Relational Intervention® (TBRI®) \nWhat is it?\nTBRI® is an attachment-based\, trauma-informed intervention that is designed to meet the complex needs of vulnerable children. TBRI® uses Empowering Principles to address physical needs\, Connecting Principles for attachment needs\, and Correcting Principles to disarm fear-based behaviors. While the intervention is based on years of attachment\, sensory processing\, and neuroscience research\, the heartbeat of TBRI® is connection. \nWho is it for and who should use it?\nTBRI® is designed to meet the complex needs of children who have experienced adversity\, early harm\, toxic stress\, and/or trauma. Because of their histories\, it is often difficult for these children to trust the loving adults in their lives\, which often results in perplexing behaviors. TBRI® offers practical tools for parents\, caregivers\, teachers\, or anyone who works with children\, to see the “whole child” in their care and help that child reach his highest potential. \nWhy use it?\nBecause of their histories\, children who have experienced trauma have changes in their bodies\, brains\, behaviors\, and belief systems. While a variety of parenting strategies may be successful in typical circumstances\, children with histories of harm need caregiving that meets their unique needs and addresses the whole child. That said\, we’ve found that any child benefits from a nurturing\, trusting relationship with a safe adult. \nCaregivers Register Here

SUMMARY:ALLIANCE - So You Have a New Placement\, Now What?
DESCRIPTION:Getting a new placement is a big transition\, and there are many ways you can prepare for and navigate the process to make it as successful as possible for yourself\, your family and the youth or child. This webinar addresses both the emotional elements to new placements and the practical details of requirements\, paperwork\, forms and expectations. \nYou will focus on four areas: Getting Ready; The First Day\, Week and Month; Settling In; and Working With the System. You will share ideas with other participants around how to prepare for a new placement\, including ways to make them feel comfortable and safety precautions to take. A big part of this training is understanding which forms you will receive and what they mean; what meetings\, appointments or hearings you need to be aware of; and who the key players are during this time. \nYou will leave the training with an understanding of what is expected during the first 30 days of a new placement. You also will know how to access resources when you have questions – you will probably have many\, but there is a great community of support available to you and the new child in your care. \nCaregivers Register Here

SUMMARY:ALLIANCE - Emotion Coaching
DESCRIPTION:Emotion Coaching is a research based method from the Talaris Institute and the Gottman Institute that gives caregivers a way to help children learn about emotions. Research shows that when caregivers value and guide emotions using this important method\, children do better in many ways.\n\nThese children tend to:\n\nForm stronger friendships with peers\nHave higher self esteem\nRegulate their moods more easily\nBe more successful in their problem solving skills\nBounce back from emotional events more quickly\nGet sick less often\n\n\nEmotion Coaching helps prepare children from birth to 5 years old for the challenges they face throughout their lifetime. A child’s ability to delight in the happy times and recover from the bad ones is a key part of emotional health. By learning and practicing the 5 steps of Emotion Coaching\, you can make an important investment in a child’s future.\n\n\nCaregivers Register Here

SUMMARY:ALLIANCE - Advanced Adoption:  Effect of Trauma and Loss on Adopted Children
DESCRIPTION:For many children in foster care\, the path up to\, including and even after adoption can include trauma\, grief and loss. As a potential adoptive parent\, it’s crucial that you understand the story a foster child is bringing to you and what part you can play in that. \nThis course\, “Advanced Adoption: The Effects of Trauma and Loss on Adopted Children\,” takes you beyond the introductory level into beginning to understand more deeply the emotional\, mental and physical needs an adoptive child may have. A startlingly high number of adoptions are not successful\, which is why it is so important that you have realistic expectations and adequate support\, both of which are explored in this training. \nYou will first be guided through a discussion around the definition of adoption\, including what it is and what it isn’t\, and you will be encouraged to share your ideals and goals as an adoptive parent. You will then spend a majority of your time learning about the impact of trauma\, grief\, loss and ACES (adverse childhood experiences) on development in adopted children\, and exploring how to recognize behaviors related to these issues. This includes training on attachment and learning ways to strengthen your bond with the children in your care depending on their attachment style. \nWhen you leave the training\, you will have numerous new training resources and supports to assist you as you navigate this new environment. \n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration Instructions:\n\n\n\nUnder Classes Available below\, click on the link/title of the dated class you are interested in.\nOn the next page\, enter your Username and Password. Then\, click the Log In button if you are not already logged in.\nNext\, click the large blue Register for this class button at the right.\nYou are now registered! You will receive an email with a copy of the details found on the class page.\n\nFor assistance with profiles or passwords\, you may contact our Help Desk by emailing AllianceSupport@uw.edu.

SUMMARY:ALLIANCE - Understanding Family Time Supervision for Caregivers
DESCRIPTION:As a caregiver\, you can play multiple roles on a child’s care team\, including being a supervisor for Family Time. This training gives you an introduction to the requirements of these visits and will guide you through evaluating your own potential appropriateness to take on this responsibility. \nIf you aren’t familiar with Family Time\, the course gives a clear definition of what it is and how you are both expected and invited to participate. (If you are interested in learning more before taking this training\, the webinar “Caregiver’s Responsibility in Supporting Family Time” is recommended as a starting point.) Then you will move into the core of the course\, learning the expectations around Family Time supervision and understanding who can play that role. You will be guided through what you need to know if you take on the role of supervisor\, including how to establish rapport with parent and child\, guidelines around intervention in visits\, and what to document and how.  Many real-life scenarios will help you put the lessons into practice and be better prepared to implement the tools you learn. \nWhen you leave the course you will understand how you can best support the supervision of Family Time\, the valuable way parents and children can stay bonded. \nCaregivers Register Here

SUMMARY:ALLIANCE - Honoring their History:  Memory Preservation for Children in Care
DESCRIPTION:Without memories\, how do you understand who you are? These slices of life are tied to emotions\, learning and growth\, and help us maintain connections to our personal history and life story. \nOften we use tools like photographs or stories or memorabilia to recall feelings or look back on events. The new training “Honoring Their History: Memory Preservation for Children in Care” focuses on how to support a child’s well-being through the recording of memories and other parts of their life during their time away from their family. \nThis webinar introduces the idea of memory preservation as central to a child’s welfare\, because it provides many benefits to emotional and mental health. You will be guided through how to start the process and the different methods of preservation\, and will be encouraged to think about which would work best for you and your family. You also will explore a variety of ways to gather information from both the child and other important adults in the child’s life. \nAt the close of this training\, you will have an individual plan for documenting and preserving memories in a way that honors the child’s past and present. \nCaregivers Register Here

SUMMARY:ALLIANCE - Talking With Children About Race
DESCRIPTION:Recent research has shown that children have very complex understandings of differences and how they make meaning of stereotypes. Far from being color-blind\, most children are aware of how their own skin color is an advantage or disadvantage.  They also judge their peers based on these differences — even though many adults believe young children in today’s generation don’t stereotype. Because of this\, it is important to give children anti-bias messages\, through actions and words that actively counter what they are internalizing and witnessing in the world. \nIn this workshop we will explore how children and youth learn and practice racism and privilege. Participants will learn strategies to for acting on teachable moments and ways to create counter narratives. \nThis training is presented by Dr. Caprice Hollins and/or Ilsa Govan\, M.A.\, co-founders of Cultures Connecting\, LLC.  \nCaregivers Register Here
