Nourishing Oregon’s TIC Network
Nourishing Oregon’s TIC Network
From Ana Hristić, MA, LCSW, Special Projects, Trauma Informed Oregon
We’ve heard the call! TIO’s network of supporters, champions, trainers, and community partners have requested that TIO continue to provide a place for gathering, learning and celebration! In line with TIC, we honor that relationships serve as 1) a buffer to the ongoing stressors of life, and 2) a vessel for creativity and innovation in “the work.” Thus, we’ve developed this 2022 calendar of offerings aimed at Nourishing Oregon’s TIC Network.

A Personal Message
On a slightly different note (though still within the realm of nourishing the network!) I wanted to share that I’ll be leaving TIO at the end of January, to join Multnomah County’s Behavioral Health Division. I’ve been deeply influenced by my 5 years with this community, and carry with me your commitment, creativity, and unrelenting capacity to vision a world imbued with liberated wellbeing and joy. We at TIO have prepared for my departure, and my hope is that you will feel uninterrupted support… but, should you need anything from me in the meantime, please do not hesitate to reach out: ahristic@pdx.edu. I trust that the power of our relationship(s) and work together will serve as a buffer during this transition, and thereby allow it to be a “see ya later” rather than a “goodbye.” In this way, the network continues to grow!
