The Training for Adoption Competency (TAC) program is a post-Master’s curriculum created by the Center for Adoption Support and Education (C.A.S.E.). It is a comprehensive, evidence-based training designed exclusively for licensed mental health professionals, providing knowledge and skills needed to effectively serve the adoption and kinship network. TAC is designed to increase families’ and individual’s access to adoption competent mental health professionals and to improve the well-being of adopted children, youth, and their families.

Licensed clinicians throughout the state are invited to participate in this training program. The next TAC training is scheduled to begin May 11, 2022, and is a virtual training.

RCPA and our Delta Center Grant partner, the Pennsylvania Association of Community Health Centers (PACHC), invite people with first-hand experience and advocates using or trying to use telehealth services to share your experiences.

The discussions and subsequent recommendations will guide the PA Delta Center team in its advocacy in developing regulations, bulletins, and practices that ensure equity and access to services for all communities. These forums are to bring advocates and stakeholders to the table to provide life experience and perspectives that can shape policy development. We hope you will join us for one of these events, as your participation will be key to our ongoing work in ensuring a healthy and sustainable telehealth footprint in Pennsylvania.

People who are volunteering to join the forum for free will be paid a stipend of $20/hour for their time or given an equivalent in a gift card.

To register for the first forum on March 16, visit here.

To register for the second forum on March 30, visit here.
