Let's Connect

Let’s Connect®is an evidence-based, trauma-informed parenting program for caregivers and their children. It helps caregivers identify and respond to children’s emotional needs to foster connection, warmth, and promote  social-emotional competence, mental health, and resilience. LC builds parents’ skills in three areas: parents’ own emotional awareness, acceptance, and regulation, creating intentional family environments, and emotion-focused, relationship skills. LC also supports caregivers to use LC skills to address children’s behavioral challenges and to support difficult family conversations, including conversations about trauma-related topics. LC skills are taught through a combination of discussions, video examples, role play, self-reflection, mindfulness, and live coaching of skills. Facilitators model and embody LC skills which is crucial for engaging families, especially for children and families who have experienced trauma. Updated in 2025.
