<span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#4D4D4D">At one of TIO’s Micro-Lesson trainings a few weeks back, I shared thoughts and ideas about co-regulation. We talked about how co-regulation is powerful and necessary, but not always so easy right
 now. We explored self-regulation through co-regulation, with interoception* as the connecting pathway. We identified how trauma, adversity, and toxic stress impact our interoception and make co-regulation harder—for example, when we are told not to trust what
 we feel, when we check out of feelings to protect ourselves, when feelings are mislabeled, and more. We need to know what regulation feels like before we can regulate or co-regulate. And this may be challenging if we are in constant states of survival and
 fear, or if our feelings have been invalidated and misunderstood. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#4D4D4D">Give yourself and others grace, because you may not know. We start with awareness—giving time and permission to check in and make up words to describe feelings - like fizzy, spiky, wide eyed, grumbly,
 snoozy, and more. Dysregulation often makes sense, has a purpose, and invites us to check in with each other and ourselves. And remember—while we sometimes need to down-regulate, we also often need to up-regulate.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

 calming and restorative. Each time I meet up with a dear friend of mine, it takes us about 3 deep breaths while hugging before co-regulation sets in.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#4D4D4D">I share this rambling about regulation, interoception, and co-regulation because it has felt really important to pay attention right now in our families, communities, and organizations. I asked
 the Micro-Lesson participants a few weeks back to identify their co-regulation superpowers: Do you bring laughter, breath, quieting, reading the room, stretching, dancing, music? Consider taking an assessment of superpowers in your teams.

 to October and Autumn, friends. Normally, I’d open our newsletter with the joys of Autumn, but right now that is less easy to come by given the federal government shutdown. While NCA’s funding (and therefore the funding we route to CACs and Chapters) has not
 been suspended so far, thank goodness, that does not mean that the field or the families we serve have not experienced the impacts: our member CACs are dealing with staff who are uncertain about what is next. And the families they serve are worried about whether
 programs they rely on will run out of money before the government reopens.<br>
<br>
Our colleagues at the Regional Children’s Advocacy Centers (RCACs) have had more immediate effects. Because they are at the end of their current grant cycle and are therefore in the application process, this is an especially tenuous time. The application portal
 in Just Grants is closed until the government reopens—delaying application submissions and new funding. On Friday, the Northeast Regional CAC furloughed its staff until new awards are made. Others are in jeopardy of doing the same in the coming months unless
 the application and award process is back on track very quickly. On the programmatic side, the effect of even temporary closures is that Chapters will not have the training and technical assistance they need during this time, which is continuously provided
 by RCACs. Not to mention all the anxiety and financial distress that comes with the furlough, which falls on their staff. No cheerful kickoff to Autumn this year.<br>
<br>
What’s to be done in times like these? First, last, and always, we must pull together and work together. The RCACs, NCA, and the VOCAA (Victims of Child Abuse Act) Partners have been working as closely together as ever, if not more so, to reduce gaps in services.
 We know that Chapters have been doing the same at the state level. And, CACs have been working tirelessly to ensure that families are continuously supported.<br>
<br>
But that’s not all we can do. CAC’s and their multidisciplinary teams serve as examples of how in high stakes decisions, individuals can come together despite disagreements and find common ground for the good of kids and families. We can remind policymakers
 that all of America’s families need their best efforts toward a positive resolution of the shutdown.<br>
<br>
And we can lean into kindness. Have a little to spare? Donate to your local CAC. They are on the front lines of families’ needs, especially right now when other resources may be unavailable. Federal workers live all around the country. Know one? A simple, “I’m
 sorry for your troubles” can make someone who is hurting feel seen. Able to do a little more? Donate to your area food bank which is under heavy demand right now.<br>
<br>
At the end of the day, the joy of Autumn isn’t in the color of the leaves, it’s in the community we have with each other. Thank you—even in the face of this challenging time— for leaning into community for the benefit of the kids and families who need us.<br>
<br>
Warmly and with hope,<br>
<br>

<span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020">The 4th annual Seamless Conference—the only event designed specifically for clinicians working at or with Child Advocacy Centers (CACs)—was once again a success! Nearly 200 clinicians joined us
 from across the country, from Alaska to Puerto Rico and everywhere in between.<br>
<br>
The conference kicked off with an inspiring keynote from Sally Zimney, whose energy and storytelling set the perfect tone for an action-packed day of learning. Day 1 featured a dynamic lineup of sessions, including a two-part presentation on ethics with Ashley
 Fiore, LCSW, National Fellow for NCA, and Geoff Sidoli, LCSW, National Fellow for NCA, followed by Andrew Wolff’s, LMFT, Program Development & Research Clinical Manager at GSCA Behavioral Health Sciences, engaging session on working with difficult caregivers.
 This session sparked lively discussions—participants eagerly shared strategies both in the chat and live on mic. The day wrapped up with Brooks Keeshin, M.D., University of Utah, who brought humor and heart to the complex topic of supporting children prescribed
 psychotropic medications, leaving everyone both informed and inspired for Day 2.<br>
<br>
Adding a dose of fun throughout the event, we raffled off copies of Sally Z’s book, “Speaking Story”, using the ever-popular “wheel of names” randomizer. The suspense of waiting for each spin brought plenty of smiles (and maybe a little friendly competition!).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

 you first meet Ashley Jellison, the Executive Director of the Colorado Children’s Alliance (Colorado’s state chapter organization), you can’t help but be struck by her calm demeanor and gentle, soft-spoken ways. But if you thought that was all there was to
 her, you couldn’t be further from the truth. Beneath that gentle exterior is a fierce advocate for the CACs of Colorado and the children and families they serve. As the Executive Director for the Chapter, she has focused her energy on ways to modernize the
 Chapter to better serve the state and has successfully strategized ways to give Colorado’s CACs a voice and a seat at the table, with the Legislature, the media, and the communities they serve. Here are her responses to our Member Spotlight questions:  <br>
  <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<h4><span style="color:#F8485E">Why did you choose this as a career?</span><o:p></o:p></h4>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020">I actually just stumbled upon this position, and I’m so glad I did! I was looking for a way to gain experience to become a Child and Adolescent Forensic
 Interviewer with the Department of Justice after shadowing one. This position opened up and I was thrilled for the opportunity to make an impact across Colorado.<br>
  <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<h4><span style="color:#F8485E">What’s something interesting you’ve learned recently?</span><o:p></o:p></h4>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020">Something I’ve been hearing much more about in the past month is the true scope of nonprofit work throughout the country. While Colorado has over 34,000
 nonprofits alone, the United States has around 1.8 million organizations, and the sector has an enormous impact. About 7.4% of the total United States labor force is employed by nonprofits, and the sector generates more than $3.7
<em><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">trillion</span></em> annually in revenue. These statistics remind me how much work we need to do to educate the population about the importance of nonprofits as whole. I’m also so inspired to be part of such
 an incredible sector doing amazing work around the country every single day.<br>
  <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<h4><span style="color:#F8485E">What’s a challenge you and your colleagues feel proud of solving?</span><o:p></o:p></h4>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020">I don’t think we’re fully there yet, but I think the biggest challenge that we’re working through is changing our Chapter from one serving only the
 CAC directors to one that serves <em><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">all</span></em> CAC staff throughout the state. We never explicitly stated that our audience was the directors, but we had several barriers in place that largely prohibited
 other staff from accessing chapter resources, aside from training sessions. Last year, we realized that, to achieve our own mission of creating a better response to child abuse in Colorado, we needed to be actively supporting every individual working towards
 that shared goal.<br>

We chose to intentionally modernize the Chapter, which included several new technology platforms, and we began communicating with all the staff at each organization, instead of just the director. Our newsletters now are sent to the entire group, and we do our
 best to build relationships with every member of each CAC’s staff. Now we have everyone from the directors to advocates to contracted mental health clinicians reaching out for help, for support, and even just to talk. This has been a drastic change from only
 communicating with our 19 directors (particularly for our email inboxes!).<br>
<br>
While we still have work to do, we are proud to say that Colorado now truly has an alliance of like-minded professionals who are working together to protect children.<br>

<h4><span style="color:#F8485E">What about your work inspires you and keeps you going?</span><o:p></o:p></h4>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020">The people across Colorado with whom I get to work every day are easily my biggest inspiration. I have the honor of supporting some of the most incredible
 people who are making huge changes in their communities. I’m awed by their passion and drive to make the world a better place. They inspire me every single day, and I’m so proud to represent them.<br>
  <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<h4><span style="color:#F8485E">What’s the biggest need for kids you think we can meet in the next five years?</span><o:p></o:p></h4>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020">The biggest need we see right now is finding a better response to online exploitation, in all its forms. Children are being victimized daily on the
 internet, and right now, we can’t keep up. With the rise of AI-generated CSAM, as well, our kids are in more danger than they ever have been before. While many CACs are responding to online exploitation, we do not have any roadmaps, largely because the landscape
 is changing constantly and quickly. We need to develop broad-scope guidelines for CACs to respond to online abuse and to educate their partners, to better protect kids from a near-constant opportunity for victimization.<br>
  <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<h4><span style="color:#F8485E">What do you think the ideal future looks like for kids?</span><o:p></o:p></h4>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020">The ideal future I see for kids is one where they are protected, they are supported, and they are believed. Of course, I would love to see a world where
 children are not victimized, where they are encouraged and trusted as the future generation. But in this world, I want to see every child have the same opportunity to grow, thrive, and to be the best version of themselves possible. This means when children
 are harmed, we believe their words without a second thought, and we immediately step in as a community to wrap them up in support and resources to help them heal.<br>
  <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<h4><span style="color:#F8485E">What’s next for you?</span><o:p></o:p></h4>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020">Who knows! I love my position and the impact I have on the state chapter. Our list of goals for Colorado continues to grow, but I think the immediate
 next project for us is moving towards a statewide database for case tracking and ensuring our data is consistent across all our CACs.<br>
