The California Training Institute (CalTrin) delivers a comprehensive, science-based professional education program to meet the needs of administrators, staff and stakeholders of the Family Resource Centers (FRCs), Child Abuse Prevention Councils (CAPCs), and child welfare agencies in the state of California.  Our model allows learners to choose training that works for their schedule, learning style, and career path. It also provides opportunities to extend learning beyond an individual training event by supporting participants with related resources and practical applications. All of CalTrin’s content is provided at no cost to learners.

Our Goal:
  • Provide a comprehensive, science-based professional education program to meet the needs of administrators, staff and stakeholders of the Family Resource Centers (FRCs), Child Abuse Prevention Councils (CAPCs), and child welfare agencies in the state of California. 
  • CalTrin conducted a state-wide needs assessment as part of the development of the professional education program.  The Needs Assessment Report was released in April 2021.
CalTrin is managed by the Rady Children’s Hospital San Diego Evidence-Based Practices Team, which also manages the California Evidence-Based Clearinghouse for Child Welfare (CEBC)
