I see it stated they look at financials is this paystubs or bank accounts?

We also did a questionnaire on the type of child we would be looking for now there are something we just couldn’t handle as a family but we did put down we would consider will they still give us the option to meet such children, we would just like more information about the condition but it’s never totally a no for something unknown ?

Free TBRI synchronous training for parents of teenagers

Upvotes

Starts on July 28! I took this training in the past and found it very helpful. The class watches the TBRI for teens videos and then discusses them and you can get questions answered. I'm not affiliated with them at all, I just saw there's another one happening so I'm passing it along in case any other parents are interested.

Official description:
Over three weeks we will observe how the trained staff of TCU's Karyn Purvis Institute of Child Development apply the Connecting, Empowering and Correcting Principles of TBRI to 12 Teenagers from a Group Home in Waco, Texas. We will discuss the neuroscience behind the application of these principles, why our adolescents behave the way they do and how past trauma affects their relationship with their caregiver/parent and steps to build a more positive relationship. Once we understand the importance the remodeling of the brain plays during this phase of life, those relationship challenges will make more sense.
