The Residential Child Care Project has been invited to over 40 states, Canada, Puerto Rico, Russia, Australia, Ireland and the United Kingdom with its ongoing programs to prevent institutional child abuse and improve the quality of residential childcare. Its widely disseminated Therapeutic Crisis Intervention (TCI) is offered at various sites in the USA and abroad. Used in hundreds of residential child care institutions, TCI has also been adapted for other congregate care settings, as well as for foster and adoptive families. Its Institutional Child Abuse (IAB) prevention and investigations programs assist state governments throughout the USA with training, investigation protocol, and critical incident review.
