Participants in the 5th San Francisco CPP Learning Collaborative
Thank you for your interest in Child-Parent Psychotherapy!
We are delighted that you want to learn CPP and become a part of our community. We are dedicated to disseminating CPP so that more providers are able to support young children and families who have experienced stressful and traumatic events.
We have seen that it takes concerted effort, support, and mentorship to be able to do this work. For this reason, our CPP learning process begins with an in-depth training that typically lasts 18-months and involves team learning and support. After the training is complete, the learning continues within your teams and in partnership with families.
Given that implementing CPP involves a considerable commitment and investment on your part, on the part of your system, and on the part of trainers, before you begin a CPP training, please review our materials and think about your readiness to implement CPP and how to enhance those factors that appear to contribute to success.
Understand how trainings are organized for different groups
We are growing our capacity to provide trainings in CPP and to enhance sustainability for those who are trained. However, please be aware that given the intensity and length of training and the growing demand, we have limited capacity to provide training upon request. Thus, it is critical that you ensure that a trainer is available to conduct training even as you apply for funding. We cannot ensure that a trainer will be available if advance arrangements have not been made.
CPP trainings are typically organized with large systems or agencies.
Large Systems
Note: Examples of large systems include government, state, or county entities or health insurance companies in charge of service provision.
Agencies
Note: We typically want you to work with a trainer in you area as they will be a part of supporting you in developing a sustainability plan.
