This training is well worth your time and money if

you are involved with TCKs and passionate about helping and working with them. In fact, you need a training like this to truly be effective in working with them.

I will be recommending that this training is mandatory for our debriefers. I think this training is excellent and necessary for anyone who will be working with our kids in this way.

It was well worth the time and money. Anyone working with TCKs needs to take this course. It is one of the best most practical courses I have ever taken.

This training really gives a lot of practical tools for adult caregivers to be both aware and proactive in helping TCKs understand themselves and their stories. I loved it and know that it will help me be a better caregiver to my own TCKs and all the little TCK friends in our circles.

I wish that I would have had this training much earlier in my life. I can see how it would have made a great impact on my family. I would like to see those in leadership in missions to have this training in order to help families or just to understand more what our MKs are experiencing.
