ETC Institute

National and Global

The ETC Institute believes that given the knowledge and
support they need, people can overcome adversity, grow, and
thrive. Working at the individual, family, and community level,
the Institute develops evidence-based resources, curriculum and training that is shared with parents, caregivers, and community stakeholders to help build more nurturing environments for healing and well-being

Information leads to transformation through applying knowledge. We equip individuals, parents, caregivers, and community stakeholders with the skills and practices they need to experience hope, healing, and lasting change.
