The Neurosequential Model in Caregiving (NMC) applies core NM concepts for parents, caregivers, and non-clinical team members working in mental health, early childhood, juvenile justice, education and a host of other settings serving children, youth and families impacted by developmental adversity.

This series is led by Michelle Maikoetter and joined by expert discussants from the Neurosequential Network including Bruce D. Perry, M.D., Ph.D. and others.
