We were honored to spend time with educators from Eugene School District 4J last week!

Two of our early childhood clinicians, Erica and Emily, led a training for teachers and staff working with students from elementary through high school. Together, they explored behavioral health, family patterns, and practical strategies educators can use to support students and families who may be experiencing crisis or may not always feel comfortable engaging with systems of care.

The educators were incredibly open and engaged, welcoming simple tools they could incorporate throughout their day. Many shared thoughtful ways they build relationships with students and how play can be a powerful tool for connection and stress reduction for children of all ages.

Thank you to Erica and Emily for sharing their expertise, and to the 4J staff for their openness and commitment to supporting students and families!

We’re investing in our clinicians 💚

This winter, OCP clinicians are participating in advanced training in Trust-Based Relational Intervention® (TBRI®), an evidence-informed, trauma-responsive approach developed to support children and youth who have experienced trauma, attachment disruptions, or early adversity.

TBRI’s Connecting, Empowering, and Correcting principles align closely with the evidence-based models already used at OCP and strengthen our ability to provide thoughtful, comprehensive support to kids and families.

This training reflects our ongoing commitment to learning, growth, and delivering care that is grounded in brain science, relationships, and compassion.

Learn more about TBRI from the Attachment & Trauma Network: https://www.attachmenttraumanetwork.org/trust-based-relational-interventions-tbri/
