Direct peers

• Zero to Three: National nonprofit focused on early childhood development including trauma and attachment. Comparable training and resource model targeted at professionals and parents of young children.
• ChildTrauma Academy: Training organization focused on childhood developmental trauma, offering the Neurosequential Model. Highly comparable to ATTACh's mission of training professionals to treat trauma-affected children.
• National Child Traumatic Stress Network (NCTSN): Federally funded network providing resources, training, and interventions for child trauma. Shares ATTACh's training/education focus but operates at much larger scale with government backing.
• International Society for Traumatic Stress Studies (ISTSS): Professional membership organization dedicated to trauma research, treatment, and education. Comparable professional-association model with annual conferences, CE offerings, and training programs overlapping ATTACh's audience.
• Circle of Security International: Provides attachment-based training and intervention programs for parents and caregivers of young children. Directly comparable to ATTACh in combining parent-facing resources with professional training in attachment theory.
• Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy Institute: Training and certification organization for attachment-focused therapy with children who have experienced trauma and disrupted attachment. Closely aligned with ATTACh's clinical methodology and target audience.
• The Theraplay Institute: Provides training and certification in Theraplay, an attachment-based play therapy. Directly comparable to ATTACh's niche of training clinicians in attachment-focused child interventions.

Broad incumbents

• Child Welfare League of America: National membership organization for child welfare professionals, including trauma-informed practice training and conferences. Adjacent in mission (training professionals serving trauma-affected children) though broader in scope.
• American Academy of Pediatrics: Large professional pediatric membership organization offering broader training, CE, and resources including trauma-related content. Overlaps ATTACh's professional training and member services but at vastly larger scale.

Regional players

• Trauma-Informed Oregon: Oregon-based initiative providing trauma-informed care training and resources. Comparable training mission and content focus, but geographically concentrated rather than global in scope.
