CHDI offers consultation, training, and technical assistance in children’s behavioral health. We offer opportunities to participate in ongoing initiatives and can also work with partners to develop custom solutions.
Below is a list of current training and/or technical assistance opportunities for educators, behavioral health providers, and staff in child-serving systems in Connecticut and beyond. These are funded through a variety of state-funded and federally-funded initiatives coordinated by CHDI.
CHDI has several opportunities for community-based behavioral health providers and school mental health personnel in Connecticut to receive free training and implementation support to deliver trauma-informed evidence-based treatments for children. CHDI serves as the coordinating center for each of the following initiatives:
CHDI developed two free online training courses (available at no-cost nationally) to help child-serving professionals implement trauma screening through the Trauma ScreenTIME (Screen, Triage, Inform, Mitigate, Engage) initiative. The courses are based on current research and best practices. Continuing education credits are available for completing either course.
Many no-cost consultation, training, and technical assistance are available to schools and districts in Connecticut to help them address students' mental health and trauma needs. Schools and districts outside Connecticut can access TraumaScreenTIME and The SHAPE System at no-cost online or contact CHDI for additional consultation.
