| Description |
Child Adult Relationship Enhancement (CARE) is a trauma-informed training model for caregivers and professionals who interact and work with children. CARE uses evidence-based interaction skills drawn from research-supported parenting programs to improve relationships with and resilience for children in a variety of settings. CARE was created for general usage by clinical and nonclinical adults who work with traumatized children. However, CARE training is applicable to a wide range of populations and is appropriate for use anywhere and by anyone who interacts with children. By integrating didactic, multimedia, and experiential components throughout the workshop, participants are taught a set of specific, innovative relational skills that result in positive outcomes for youth. To promote collaboration among participants, techniques are discussed, practiced in small groups, and exemplified in a series of activities, including presenter and video demonstrations, large-group activities, small group break-outs, and individual coaching from presenters as participants practice skills.
