Get Involved

Do Your Part, However, Whenever, Wherever You Are.

Yes, we have a long way to go toward a better understanding of developmental trauma/reactive attachment disorder, and mental health overall, in society. 

​

But it is very possible when we all work together.

​

Take part from your corner of the world. Get creative and inspired by moms like Caela and Laura and professionals like Sateash (pictured). Together, we're stronger. We are all RAD advocates.

Join Us.

Our vision is that, one day, more children with developmental trauma/reactive attachment disorder will remain in the home with the healthy families that raise them — in which every family member is physically and emotionally safe at all times. Together, we can make our vision a reality through education and advocacy.

Become a member

Membership is the perfect RAD advocacy union. Just as we support members, members support us. They are the backbone of our nonprofit that keep our good work going. 

Because it just makes sense.

It’s extremely difficult, even dangerous at times, for parents — whether adoptive, biological, step-parent, or otherwise — to parent a child with developmental trauma disorder/reactive attachment disorder (RAD).

RAD Advocates exists to bridge the gap between parents and professionals.

 

When we do not protect these families as a society, we perpetuate the disorder, harm all children in the home, and feed the broken child welfare system.

It doesn’t have to be this way.

 

Let’s defend families, not the disorder.

Let’s support the critical job of parents. Let’s keep everyone in the home safe and well. When we do, we give kids with the disorder a better chance to stay in their families.

 

It just makes sense.

The NavRAD Experience

NavRAD isn't really a conference. It's a guided experience for those raising kids with developmental trauma to connect and create a personal plan forward. We travel to a different state each year to bring that experience to as many people as possible.

 

Experience the next NavRAD for yourself. Missed NavRAD? Consider membership.

RAD Advocates guides and advocate for parents as they navigate developmental trauma/reactive attachment disorder.

RAD Advocates, a nonprofit organization founded by parents, educates about developmental trauma disorder and advocates for those raising children with the disorder.
