Navigating Repatriation
as an Adult TCK

Self-Guided Course & Packet 

Repatriation is the unique transition Adult TCKs experience when they move back to their passport country after living overseas. It is often a difficult season for ATCKs as they are grieving the loss of their community and known culture, all while navigating a new culture, place, and stage of life! 

This resource is also relevant to TCKs entering adulthood whether they're repatriating or not. The content is valuable to any adult TCK!

The course's with bite-sized videos will walk you through 10 units of content relevant to the ATCK repatriation transition (see the unit topics below!).

This resource was designed for an individual ATCK to go through the materials themselves, or for an organization or school to use the materials and accompanied discussion guide to lead a cohort or to supplement an orientation program (see more below). 

These are the preliminary prices. If you purchase this year you will be grandfathered into that price.
