MORNING SESSION DESCRIPTION: The Bradley Center follows the Sanctuary® Model of trauma-informed care and is a certified Sanctuary provider. Developed in 1985 by psychiatrist Dr. Sandra Bloom, the Sanctuary® Model promotes children’s safety and recovery from adversity by actively creating a trauma-informed community all around them.
