The Center for Child and Family Traumatic Stress offers training and consultation packages to mental health professionals, service providers and organizations interested in improving their trauma-focused treatment capacity either through the implementation of evidenced base practices or trauma informed interventions and considerations.
Our training mission is to increase the number of trained trauma professionals prepared to deliver culturally competent, evidence-based child trauma treatment and/or trauma-informed services.
