  • Insight into trauma-informed practices with children and families
  • Career development strategies for the child advocacy field

Accessibility Commitment: At SPARK, we believe financial circumstances should never prevent dedicated students from accessing coaching. If the standard fee presents a significant hardship, please reach out to discuss our scholarship options. We reserve a limited number of no-cost sessions each month for students who would otherwise be unable to participate.

Simply note in your request that you’re interested in our scholarship option, and we’ll follow up with you directly. All scholarship discussions remain confidential.
