Equipping Caregivers
See how a therapeutic summer camp is helping children who have experienced trauma! Most of these children are adopted or in foster families. They are learning how to communicate and express their needs and emotions in a healthy way. Their parents are also being equipped with techniques to help them feel nurtured and supported.
The goal is to strengthen these adoptive and foster families by giving them tools to make their homes an environment of safety, love, acceptance and guidance.
We want to see these children thriving! Knowing that they are precious and loved, not haunted by their traumatic past.
Through therapeutic summer camps like this one, children who have experienced trauma will learn how to successfully self-regulate their emotions and behaviors, know how to give and receive care, and can express their needs with respect.
