We consider the whole person across multiple diagnostic categories at the same time.

WHO USES THE NRF?

The NRF applies to all systems of care that interface with infants, children, adolescents, and their parents.

The NRF provides a common
language and shared approach for collaborative care across the disciplines and within the systems.

Individual disciplines, as noted
here, tend to be weighted towards specializations, thus
fragmenting care.

We passionately offer data-driven, customized, and
collaborative care with our research-based training,
curriculum, dashboards, app, and ongoing data collection.

RESOURCES

The NRF’s goal is to have as many professionals and parents who are interested, able to get trained. A second goal strives to use its manuals and textbook for research purposes. The NRF is designed to be a value add to any Evidence-Based Treatment. Our manuals are complemented by various NRF Apps, asynchronous video-based trainings, and synchronous consultations.
