Q

What is the NRF (NeuroRelational Framework)?

A

Neuro = references the focus on understanding principles of brain development and function
Relational = references the significance of relationships and their impact on development and healing
Framework = references the NRF as both an assessment and intervention guiding the use of promising and evidence-based practices, so treatments better match neurodevelopmental needs.

Q

What does the NRF look like at the systems level?

A

Mapping from the four brain systems to the level of the community and systems of
care allows for more integrated, cross-sectored work.

Regulation System = meeting basic needs and providing medical care
Sensory System = meeting developmental needs and addressing delays or disabilities
Relevance System = meeting socioemotional, relational, and mental health needs
Executive System = meeting early care, learning and educational needs

Child Welfare = encircles the wheel, as an example, because these children in
care often have very complex needs, often engaging in each system of care.
Children with Autism and other complex neurodevelopmental disorders are equally
engaging multiple systems of care and could be placed in the center of this wheel.

Q

What are cohort participants saying about the NRF?

A

At the Individual and Family Level

“I like how [the NRF] can lend itself to a variety of models and schools of thought.
Fore example, I can look at a curriculum and the NRF helps me determine what its
strengths and weaknesses are. Additionally, I can look at a family system and see the same elements. I would like to use the NRF model with Child Welfare more, both to explain children’s needs, especially social/emotional, but also to support them in a reflective way as they deal with some very difficult situations.”
