For the past 6 years, several state and local agencies have joined to host the annual Trauma Informed Care Conference. Each year, the premiere conferences have brought together hundreds of diverse participants representing a wide array of service providers. This year's theme, ""There is HOPE! Thriving After the Storm" continues to use the "Storm" as the analogy for "Trauma" as with previous year's theme.

This group will focus on opportunities for leadership training graduates to serve on decision-making groups, provide coaching guidance for those who are already serving on groups or about to serve on groups, and will be a place where graduates can discuss common concerns, problems and successes that will help them be more effective parent/caregiver leaders. Meetings will be held on the 4th Wednesday of every month at 12 noon. (Open only to leadership training graduates.)
