Therapists, case managers, ministers, and other helping professionals:
Join the 2026 Train-the-Trainer group
and learn how to implement
the POOF model in your community

POOF, which stands for Pulling Out Of Fire, is a culturally tailored form of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy geared toward addressing racial and systemic oppression/ trauma. It is administered in a ten-week group model. 

 

Trainees participating in the Train-the-Trainer series will learn how to run/ facilitate POOF groups. Group training will occur in five 2-hour sessions per week. All Train-the-Trainer participants will receive the PowerPoint slides and other documents/ exercises to facilitate groups. 

PLEASE NOTE:

Because the POOF model addresses the sensitive topics of racial and systemic trauma for marginalized or oppressed populations, consultation groups should only be joined if you already have a trusting relationship and established rapport with the marginalized community that you intend to serve.
