Abstract

My capstone project aims to improve the knowledge of caregivers on trauma-informed care and therapeutic play. The goal is to address the lack of resources available to caregivers and reduce burnout. A toy drive was organized through a project. Additionally, three educational resources have been created and distributed. These resources have been available to caseworkers who are directly working with foster families so that they can be handed out to them.
