Featured Speakers
Debra and Alan Jones, married for 32 years, are the proud parents a biological daughter, an internationally adopted son, and a great son-in-law. For years, these educators felt overwhelmed and ill equipped to manage the maladaptive behaviors of their son, Dane, who suffered from Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, lead toxicity, and severe neglect in a Romanian orphanage.
Through a rich partnership with researchers at Texas Christian University’s Institute of Child Development, they found life-changing answers. Debra, who holds a Masters in Education, has over twenty years of experience with special needs children. She now works as an associate of the Institute teaching Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI®).
Together Alan and Debra lead their own business, Parenting Adoptees Can Trust (PACT). PACT offers education, support and research-based strategies to help parents of foster, adoptive, and at-risk children build better relationships with their child. Alan has truly had an impact on many dads who now embrace TBRI®.
Alan and Debra live in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex and travel throughout the U.S. and Canada helping parents. Learn about their speaking topics and In-home Intensive Interventions at www.parentingadopteescantrust.com

She is currently teaching as an adjunct instructor, and completing her PhD in Educational Psychology at Texas A&M University in Commerce, TX.

Angie has extensive experience in a residential group home where she served as the Therapeutic Services Director as well as Residential Care Director. The facility served children placed from Child Protective Services, and through private families, including some from failed adoptions. Most of the children served had experienced deep trauma as well as attachment and developmental issues.
Since 2008, Angie has been involved with Dr. Purvis and Dr. Cross at The Institute of Child Development at Texas Christian University.
