Press
For journalists, editors, and writers covering this work.
Press kit, media contact, and a short list of quotes from readers walking the trail. We are happy to talk on background, on the record, or off it.
Stretch 2 · Settling InIf you are writing about childhood trauma, foster care, caregiving, education, or the long work of pulling a hurting child's wagon, we would love to help.
We can share background on the framework, connect you with practitioners on our team, or point you toward research we lean on. We are especially glad to talk with writers who want to move past headlines and into the longer, quieter story of what healing actually looks like for a child and the caring adults around them.
A few notes before you reach out. We do not share stories about specific children. We do not comment on active cases. We do not speak in the voice of a clinician, because we are not one. We are glad to point you to clinicians who can.
Featured quotes
A few words from people walking the trail.
Shared with permission. Names withheld to protect the children in each story.
For the first time since we started fostering, I have a way to talk about our kid that makes sense to the teacher, the therapist, and the caseworker all at once. That matters more than I can put into words.
The wheels gave me a structure I could hand my clients when they were drowning in parenting books. It is the first framework I have seen that respects both the research and the reality of a hard Tuesday afternoon.
I read the stage descriptions and finally understood why the last eight months had felt the way they felt. I was not failing. I was on the Plateau. That one sentence changed my whole week.
We started using the shared vocabulary in our team meetings and the quality of our case discussions changed overnight. Everybody was finally talking about the same thing.
