TCI Update: TCI Transition to TCI Families (TCIF)

Description

This Update is designed to support use of the TCI system within the specialised population of those caring for children in a Foster Care or home environment.  

 

It is suitable for TCI7 and TCIS2 trainers to attend, after discussion with TACT.

 

This update is a two-day program for current TCI & TCIS certified trainers to learn the content and revisions to the Therapeutic Crisis Intervention for Families (TCIF) curriculum. TCIF is based on the TCI6 core curriculum but revised for families who are caring for challenging children in their own homes. Edition 4 stresses crisis prevention and de-escalation strategies and the topics presented will include; the effects of trauma on children; preventing crisis by creating a safe and secure environment; emotional competence; negotiating rules and expectations; using consequences; assessing what the child feels, needs, and wants; and developing individual crisis support plans. In addition to reviewing minor revisions in the TCIF curriculum, new techniques and skills to help prevent and deescalate crises will be demonstrated and then practiced.
