Using Trust-Based Relational Intervention in a School Setting

For students who have experienced trauma, disrupted relationships, or other significant challenges, traditional approaches to behavior and learning may not always be enough. This practical workshop introduces educators to Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) and explores how its principles can be applied in the school setting. Participants will learn simple, relationship-centered strategies for helping students feel safe, connected, and ready to learn.

This is a six-hour (plus breaks) in-person workshop offered to WELS schools.
