Welcome to the Children’s Trauma Initiative

The Essential Elements of the Children’s Trauma Initiative

The essential elements of the Children’s Trauma Initiative include training and coaching in evidence-based treatments including Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP), trauma screening and trauma assessment, and Caregiver Education (NCTSN’s Resource Parent Curriculum).

CTI works with our network of national TF-CBT and CPP training consultants, and Caregiver Education master and statewide trainers to ensure effective and efficient training and technical assistance for CMHSPs and their provider agencies involved in the MDHHS Children’s Trauma Initiative.
