TAC Sites and Partners

C.A.S.E. has partnered with organizations nationwide, setting up 16 licensed Training for Adoption Competency (TAC) sites across 15 states to train mental health professionals in becoming adoption competent. As more TAC sites open, and more mental health professionals are trained, even more adoptive families across the country will have access to expert adoption-competent mental health care. 

TAC trainings are offered by the following list of licensed TAC sites. Contact a site in your community to learn about upcoming training opportunities.
