Facing the Unknown: The Harsh Reality of Aging Out and Creating Better Paths Forward

Aging out of foster care is like being handed a parachute… without the instructions. In this engaging and eye-opening session, you will hear straight from former foster youth about what it really takes to transition into adulthood successfully. Through real talk, interactive discussions, and a strategy-packed brainstorming session, we’ll tackle challenges like housing, finances, and mental health. You’ll leave with fresh insights, practical ideas and perhaps a new perspective to help youth in foster care not just survive—but thrive! Be ready for real stories, real solutions, and real impact!

Intro to TBRI

Trust Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) is an attachment rich, trauma-informed intervention designed to meet the complex needs of vulnerable children. The TBRI Introduction and Overview focuses on the impacts of trauma and toxic stress and explains the three primary components of TBRI – Empowering, Connecting, and Correcting. Participants will explore the “why” behind children’s behaviors and learn specific strategies for keeping connection at the heart of the relationship. TBRI is used in homes, residential facilities, schools, churches, juvenile justice facilities, child welfare, in clinical practices, and with ANYONE that works with children.
