For Clinicians

Constructing a professional development plan to gain the skills, knowledge and expertise you need to be a top-notch clinician can be daunting. Oh, and let’s not forget feeling isolated from other likeminded mental health professionals…oh did we mention time for self-care and reflective practice!

For Clinicians

The Knowledge Center at Chaddock is your go to place for training, consultation and other offerings related to Attachment-Based and Trauma-Informed practices all in one spot. We are developing a community around putting attachment theory into action, welcome and grab a seat.

For Educators

Have you been hearing buzz words like self-care and trauma informed at your school?! There are a lot of competing interests as an educator and buzz words like these can feel overwhelming. How can I meet the needs of my students and be the teacher I always saw myself as?

For Educators

Our trainers and consultants have worked in Chaddock’s special education school and know how challenging it can be. We can help increase your understanding of Trauma and ACE’s and inspire you to be an agent for positive social change one student at a time.

For Nonprofit Leaders

Leading a nonprofit organization brings a lot of unique challenges. Cultivating relationships with staff, board members, and the leadership team can make even the most seasoned leader feel overwhelmed.

For Nonprofit Leaders

TKC resources from Dr. Debbie Reed, Ph.D. including Reed about Leadership and Nonprofit Leadership Academy from Dr. Debbie Reed, Ph. D, President and CEO of Chaddock are available to support you with strategic planning, leadership and change management.
