What is Attachment, Regulation and Competency?
ARC (Attachment, Regulation and Competency) is designed to re-parent children and young people aged three to seventeen who have experienced multiple and/or prolonged trauma. Children and young people often present with severe psychological and behavioural issues which can lead to significant challenges for foster parents to fully integrate them into everyday life.The three pillars of attachment, regulation, and competency work together to create a holistic approach that addresses the complex needs of children who have faced trauma, helping them build trust, manage emotions, and develop the skills necessary for success in daily life.
ARC is a Attachment, Regulation and Competency.

Over a decade of experience they have put together the core aspects of trauma treatment that can be used in a wide variety of child care settings. A As a result the ARC (Attachment, Regulation and Competency) model is also being used by a number of Local Authorities in education, youth justice and fostering.
The ARC framework (Attachment, Regulation and Competency) provides a structured approach to support children and young people who have experienced trauma.
The ARC framework provides foster carers with practical tools to help children develop healthier emotional responses, better self-regulation, and stronger interpersonal skills, contributing to their long-term well-being both in foster care and beyond.
