About this Event

Trauma has a profound impact on children’s lives. As caregivers in any capacity, we can serve children and families better by understanding how trauma shapes behavior, shifting our perspective, and using practical tools to create safe, healing environments.

This training is designed for parents, teachers, church volunteers, and anyone who works with children, whether for an hour a week or in a full-time caregiving role.

What You’ll Learn:
✔️ How trauma affects a child’s brain and behavior
✔️ A new perspective on challenging behaviors
✔️ Practical strategies to build trust, connection, and resilience
✔️ Tools to help children regulate emotions and succeed



Meet Our Speaker:

Melanie McCracken, M.Ed. is a TBRI® Practitioner, an affiliate trainer with Back to Back Ministries, a special education teacher, and a foster/adoptive mom. She is also a pastor’s wife, familiar with the unique dynamics of church children’s ministry. Her passion is equipping caregivers to support children from hard places with grace and understanding.
