Why is PACE important?
- Builds Secure Attachments: PACE helps foster strong, secure attachments between caregivers and children, especially those who may have experienced trauma or neglect.
- Reduces Shame and Trauma: By creating a safe and supportive environment, PACE can help children reduce feelings of shame and trauma.
- Enhances Communication: The PACE approach encourages open and honest communication between caregivers and children, leading to better understanding and problem-solving.
Key components of the training:
This training focuses on understanding the principles and practical application of the PACE model. We cover topics such as:
- The importance of Attachment: Understanding the role of secure attachments in child development.
- The impact of Trauma: Learning about the effects of trauma on children's behaviour and emotions.
- PACE principles: Deepening understanding of the four core elements of playfulness, Acceptance, curiosity, and Empathy.
- Practical application: Learning how to implement the PACE model in various caregiving settings.

Our PACE suite is suitable for a wide range of individuals. We recommend a yearly refresher to ensure that practices stay fresh and to help prevent the worker from reverting to the style of parenting they experienced:
- Social Workers: Case managers, child welfare workers, and community organisers.
- Caregivers: Foster parents, adoptive parents and kinship caregivers.
- Mental Health Professionals: Therapists, counselors, and social workers.
- Educators: Teachers, school counselors, and special education professionals.
