We believe strongly that every youth is inherently resilient.
We operate our programming and tailor our interventions around this principle. We seek to empower youth and build upon their strengths and interests. Programs place an emphasis on utilizing a trauma-informed lens and building resilience by developing a strong sense of self, regulation skills, and connectedness.

Trust Based Relational Intervention® (TBRI®)
TBRI® is a holistic, attachment-based, trauma-informed intervention that is designed to meet the complex needs of children who have experienced adversity, harm, toxic stress, and/or trauma.
TBRI® uses Empowering Principles to address physical needs, Connecting Principles to address attachment needs, and Correcting Principles to disarm fear-based behaviors.
The Caregiver Series training is intended for Caregivers and professionals and is facilitated by Jacob Center team members who have successfully completed training at the TCU Karyn Purvis Institute of Child Development and are qualified as TBRI® Practitioners to present the materials.

Inspiring positive and lasting change
The cornerstone of our programming is building youth and family resilience. This is done through opportunities to connect, through improving youth ability to self-regulate, and through working to improve a youth’s ability to be healthy, happy, and productive member of our community.
This work requires a great amount of direct care hours with clients which may include on-call crisis response, 5-10 hours of direct client time per week, multiple extended visits per week, education, Connection Groups for caregivers and their children, resource navigation, and advocacy.
We can’t do this work alone. We invite you to partner with us to help us serve more youth and families.
