Support Groups & Mentors

Upon completion of this first module of TBRI, parents will be invited to join a private Facebook group where members can ask questions and share ideas, all with a TBRI®-informed perspective. 

Another avenue of connecting and growing with others is through various book studies that we offer throughout the year, both online and in-person. Details about these will be shared through social media, as well as listed on our website calendar.

Mentors are vital, especially in the early months of parenting a child who is new to your home that is from a hard place. We will bridge the gap between you and someone who has been on this journey, whether it be adoption or fostering, as a resource for guidance, encouragement, and accountability.
Video Resources

​A handful of videos, most of which are brief with a few longer ones sprinkled in, that we think will prove insightful to most any parent or caregiver.

​​Recommended Books

With so many books available on parenting, not all of them tap into what we walk through on a regular basis. Although not exhaustive, we have listed a few that you may find helpful on this journey towards hope and healing, both for you and your child.
