Home Centers & Labs Training Resource Center
The Training Resource Center (TRC) promotes and supports the well-being of families, children, and communities through research and evaluation, training, technical assistance and service and program development. For more than two decades, the TRC has been a source of innovation, information, and integral collaborations. As a nationally recognized leader in the fields of child welfare research and training, the TRC serves more than 50,000 individuals each year. Moreover, the TRC is committed to being a catalyst entity – one that brings meaningful change – to the institutions, organizations, and agencies with which it partners and collaborates.
Although much talked about, a true research-to-practice pipeline is elusive in many instances. The innovative structure, and resulting multifarious collaborations, of the Training Resource Center (TRC) allow such a pipeline to not only exist, but to flourish. Research-based interventions and best practices are put into the field almost immediately with the team of TRC researchers and program experts working alongside one another. State-of-the-art, evidence-based trainings, interventions, and programming reach their intended audiences in weeks, not years, with this model. The result is a collaborative approach that is empowered to address the most complex issues in child welfare, behavioral health, and beyond.
