SUPPORT THE TRAINING OF EXPERT PCIT PROVIDERS

Donations to PCIT International directly support our mission to improve the lives of young children with behavioral and emotional challenges by expanding access to Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT). Your gift helps us train and certify therapists, develop new clinical resources, and offer continuing education to ensure providers deliver PCIT with fidelity and cultural responsiveness.

BRINGING PCIT TO UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES GLOBALLY

Funds also support our global outreach and implementation efforts, helping bring PCIT to underserved communities and countries where evidence-based child mental health services are limited or unavailable. Donations make it possible to translate materials, support local trainers, and provide implementation guidance in diverse settings.

FUELING INNOVATION IN CHILD MENTAL HEALTH

In addition, contributions fuel research and innovation in PCIT, helping us evaluate adaptations, measure outcomes, and respond to emerging needs in child and family mental health.

We also use donated funds to maintain public resources, such as the PCIT provider directory, and host professional events like our Biennial Convention.

Whether you're a clinician, researcher, parent, or advocate, your donation helps grow a global network of trained providers and ensures that families everywhere have access to high-quality, effective care. Every gift—no matter the size-makes a meaningful impact. Thank you for supporting PCIT International.

Why your Contribution Matters

TRANSFORM CHILDHOODS EVERYWHERE

01

When you donate to PCIT International, you help transform the lives of children and families around the world. Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) is a proven, evidence-based treatment that helps young children with serious behavior challenges while strengthening the bond between caregivers and children. But access to PCIT is still limited in many communities— especially in under-resourced areas where children are most at risk.


TRAIN THERAPISTS, EMPOWER FAMILIES

Your donation allows us to expand access by training more therapists, offering continuing education, and supporting agencies in implementing PCIT with fidelity. With your support, we can equip clinicians with the tools they need to deliver high-quality care and help families build stronger, healthier relationships.


FUEL INNOVATION AND GLOBAL IMPACT

03

Donations also fuel innovation. They help us translate materials into new languages, adapt PCIT for telehealth and global contexts, and support research that improves outcomes for diverse populations. Additionally, your generosity helps maintain the PCIT provider directory, develop free educational content, and host events like our Biennial Convention that connect and inspire professionals across the world.


Every dollar makes a difference. Whether it's helping a rural clinic launch its first PCIT program or giving a therapist access to expert consultation, your gift supports work that creates lasting, meaningful change. Thank you for being part of this mission. Together, we can give more families the tools they need to thrive.
