Ways we can help

Illuminate

Bringing Light to Connected Parenting

Illuminate is an eight-part, self-paced, video-based training course that walks families through topics essential to understanding trauma & building healing relationships. Participants are given additional resources to further their learning and put the things they learned into practice. These resources include activities to do with their children, additional books and videos, and questions for self-reflection.

All 8 Modules will be available as soon as you sign up. And you don’t need to arrange childcare and you don’t need to leave your home to get some high-quality, easily accessible trauma-informed training.
