Dr. Graves also works with a diverse team of trainers with a combined 60 years of experience delivering data-driven, tailored trainings and technical assistance to corporations,  community-based agencies, and organizations.  Although we can provide on a variety of topics, we specialize in providing tailored, trauma-informed training and technical assistance. 

  • The verdict is in. Trauma-informed organizations are essential to not only more effective services and programs, but also improved staff well-being and sustainability. Behavioral health, medical, schools, law enforcement, and businsess alike are growing their capacity to be a trauma-informed organization.

    Are you interested in expanding your organization's capacity to be trauma-informed? Take a peek at Kellin's 6-phase plan. We realize that this 6-phase plan may not work for all as each organization is different. Thus, we can develop an individualized trauma-informed training plan based on your organizational needs.

  • Training and technical assistance are different strategies. Training is more focused on building general capacity in a particular content area to improve skills. Technical assistance is focused more on helping an individual or organization with a specific, targeted goal or issue in order to improve efficiency and effectiveness.

    Our training and technical assistance offerings are tailored to meet your individual needs. It can be delivered in a variety of ways, such as one-on-one trainings, small groups or agency-wide, or through face-to-face, telephone, or web-based methods.
