Statewide Trauma Informed Care (TIC)

Grant Overview

The State of California entered a joint training partnership with Child Care Providers United-CA (CCPU). As a result, the Service Employees International Union Education and Support Fund (SEIU ESF) has been allocated funding to enhance several statewide programs to support child care provider training and opportunities.

In December 2022, SEIU ESF entered an agreement with Child Care Resource Center (CCRC). CCRC will utilize these funds to plan, produce and deliver statewide Trauma Informed Care (TIC) training and provider cafés for Family Child Care (FCC) and Family, Friend, and Neighbor (FFN) child care providers. The TIC grant is designed to increase the number and capacity Resource and Referral (R&R) professionals, trained to facilitate TIC trainings and provider cafés. The grant also supplies providers with valuable information to support children and their families who are experiencing or have experienced trauma in early childhood.

Grant Components

TIC Trainings

Each of the 60 participating R&R agencies across the state of California is responsible for delivering eight hours of TIC training using evidence-based, culturally responsive Emergency Child Care Bridge curriculum. Each agency has the freedom to choose the scheduling and format of their individual TIC trainings.

Trainings are offered by each participating R&R at least once each grant year. If available, agencies can request additional funding to conduct additional TIC events.

    Provider Cafés

    Provider Cafés are intended to engage child care providers in meaningful TIC discussions focused on self-care, strengths and challenges when providing TIC, and growth within the field. These discussions provide opportunities for attendees to learn from each other’s experiences and receive social support from others who are also providing care to children that have experienced trauma.

      Stipends

      Child care providers that participate in required TIC trainings and cafés will receive $500 in stipends, with funds allocated in the grant agreement.

      Support Services

      Through the grant, providers and TIC facilitators can receive reflective support from trained consultants, to make the most of a participant’s TIC training or facilitation experience. The service acts as an additional layer of support that is free and confidential, with services including office hours and virtual one-on-one support sessions.

        Research and Evaluation

        CCRC’s Research Division conducts ongoing evaluation of the organization’s statewide initiatives. The team collects and manages data from all R&Rs that facilitate TIC grant training and cafés. TIC-related surveys and forms sent to collect feedback and data are analyzed and turned into insightful dashboard reports representing real-time impacts and outcomes. The Research division team also make recommendations to improve critical policies and programs that impact statewide work, to enhance the well-being and resilience of children, families, and R&R agencies across the state.

        Marketing and Communications

        CCRC has hired additional staff to consult and support R&R agencies with their TIC marketing, community outreach, messaging, and materials development. Outreach materials include digital and print flyers, graphics, content for e-blasts, newsletters and blogs.

        Statewide R&R Regional Network

        CCRC is the coordinator and facilitator of TIC funding for training and resources, leveraging the statewide regional delivery system developed to provide Preschool Development Grant (PDG) program activities.

        Regional Leads and Local R&R's

        CCRC has identified 11 Regional Leads across the State of California that are responsible for facilitating their own TIC training(s) and provider cafés. Additionally, each regional lead is responsible for oversight of the TIC work of Local R&R agencies that reside within their region and facilitate their own work.
