We can provide custom training for your staff, ranging in length from two to eight hours. We bring together the most helpful and practical tools from brain science research, culturally-responsive teaching, trauma and attachment theory, and social emotional learning. Professional development topics for camp staff can include:
- trauma-responsive approaches to challenging behavior
- creative engagement practices
- restorative conflict resolution
- creating safety, belonging, and inclusion
- team building and collaboration
- strategies for communication and building strong relationships with families
We’ve provided training for over 100,000 educators and youth service providers throughout the last fifteen years, including organizations such as:
- Associated Recreation Council (ARC)
- MENTOR Washington
- School Out Washington (SOWA)
- YMCA of Greater Seattle
- YMCA of Snohomish County
- Boys and Girls Club
- City Year
Many of our team members come from camp backgrounds, so we understand that budgets can be tight. BELONG Partners is a 501c3 nonprofit, and thanks to our grant funding that allows us to subsidize the program fees, we can offer our engaging, high-impact trainings to camp providers this year at half the cost!
