Events – Tristate Trauma Network

All 2020-2021 Events have been made possible in part by funding from bi3 & Interact for Health

Thank you to our 2021 All Year Training & Event Sponsor – Finding Hope Consulting, LLC

We greatly appreciate the support of this agency founded by Mary Vicario, who has been a supporter of TTN from the beginning. This year Finding Hope added to their membership to become an All Year Training & Event Sponsor. Their additional contribution helps support all of our events.

Through lively and interactive training, Mary Vicario and Finding Hope addresses the gap in training available to communities by bringing neurobiology to life using common language and interventions for clinicians, caseworkers, birth and foster parents, developmental disabilities service providers, and others. In addition to training, Mary Vicario provides “theory to practice” consultation to help immediately apply your learning to daily interactions with those you serve. Finding Hope has strengthened a broad range of organizations with a focus on supporting underserved populations and creating trauma-responsive communities.

SAVE THE DATE! For our 2021 Fall Conference – October 26th!
