FAQs
HOW LONG DOES THE CONFERENCE LAST?
The Conference is one day only but varies depending on your experience/needs! If you are new to TBRI, we ask that you attend the first session that begins at 8:00am. If you have attended the conference in the past or participated in TBRI Training, please join us at 9:00am for the second session. The final session will conclude at 3:00pm, but we're offering an optional Breakout Session from 3-4pm for those who would like some practical next-steps for applying what you learned.
If you attend the whole conference including Session 1 and the Breakout Session, please plan to be at the church from 8:00am-4:00pm. If you have some TBRI background already and do not wish to attend the Breakout Session, please plan to be at the church from 9:00am-3:00pm.

We are offering this conference as a way to encourage foster, adoptive, and kinship families and professionals who work with children who've experienced trauma, so we have tried to keep the price low. Tickets cost $20/person or $30/couple, plus an additional $10/child for those who need childcare. Host church families save $5 off the ticket price. Tickets will go on sale in February 2023.
IS CHILDCARE AVAILABLE?
Yes! Childcare is available for ages 6 months to 14 years old for only $10/child.

Snacks are provided, but we ask that you bring a sack-lunch for your child(ren).
