ARC’s purpose is to support all schools and education settings to be attachment and trauma aware in their practice for the benefit of all members of the learning community and particularly the most vulnerable, by bringing together, sharing and celebrating best practice.
As a membership organisation it works to:
- Supporting Schools to Become Attachment & Trauma Aware

ARC supports members by opening up professional and educational pathways within a membership platform with readily available resources, regional workshops, panel discussions and virtual events that allow members to network and support each other. As well as regional events, members benefit from annual conferences, webinars and research symposiums.
ARC works closely with a wide range of international, national, regional and local organisations, agencies, settings and associations to help support professionals working across provision for children and young people. As a leading charity, ARC supports members to commit to:
- Promoting inclusion and preventing exclusion
