Brave Training Project

The Pediatric Anxiety Research Center and Judge Baker Children’s Center are partnering on a new initiative to provide therapist training and organizational support for integrating and enhancing the use of exposure in practice. Exposure is a highly effective component of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for anxiety that involves helping clients gradually face their fears. This RFA seeks applications from agencies interested in an early opportunity to partner on this project, which will be reviewed for funding from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) in Fall 2020. Most project activities, including training time, would be compensated.

The application deadline has been extended to May 15, 2020. See the attached RFA for additional details, and direct any questions to Dr. Kristen Benito at [email protected].
