LIVE VIEWING – Hope for the Journey Conference: Chippewa Falls
April 25 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm
The Wisconsin Family Connections Center is excited to host an opportunity for individuals and families to attend a simulcast of the national virtual conference, “Hope for the Journey.” We will view the simulcast together, in person, on Friday, April 25th, in Chippewa Falls. We will begin showing the conference at 9:00 am sharp, and welcome folks to register for the whole day or any part of it they can attend. A light breakfast and lunch will be provided, with time over lunch to connect with other attendees of the simulcast.
The Hope for the Journey Conference will equip parents and caregivers to meet the everyday needs of children impacted by adoption and foster care and further resource churches in their endeavors to be beacons of hope and encouragement for families in their congregations and surrounding communities.
Through proven, trusted content, Hope for the Journey explores the fundamentals of Trust-Based Relational Intervention® (TBRI®) across five sessions—chock-full of knowledge, insight, and practical tools. Rooted in research and neuroscience, the Connecting, Empowering, and Correcting Principles of TBRI will guide you to a better understanding of your child’s or teen’s needs and equip you to meet those needs adequately.
Please note: This is a faith-based conference organized by the non-profit organization Show Hope. For more information on the conference content, visit – https://hopeforthejourney.com/
