We are back in the studio for fall🎙️ NEW MENTOR LAB EPISODE
What does it really mean to be a consistent, trusted adult in the life of a young person who has experienced foster care?
This month, we’re joined by Dr. Greg Manning, Professional Training & Consultation licensed clinical psychologist and nationally recognized trainer with extensive experience supporting foster youth, transitional-age youth, and the professionals who serve them.
Together, we talk about trauma, attachment, grief and loss, and the importance of permanency and connection—helping mentors better understand what may be behind a young person’s behaviors and how simply showing up consistently can make a difference.
If you mentor or support a young person impacted by foster care, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
