Since 2023, Omni Family Institute has been providing hope, empowerment, and trauma-informed tools to help transform the landscape of evidence-based care for those impacted by the child-welfare system. Using evidence-based models and training that has been proven to improve outcomes, the Omni Family Institute team is committed to giving their partner agencies everything they need to implement these methods practically, faithfully, and consistently. OFI’s training gives foster care agencies and parents practical parenting and supervisory techniques that adapt to the realities of day-to-day practice, alongside ongoing coaching that supports them through their caregiver journey.
In 2025, Omni Family Institute formally partnered with Becky Haas consulting to provide her Basics of Trauma, ACEs, Resilience, and Using a Trauma Informed Approach course as well as the Train the Trainer course in their menu of evidence-based resources.
Beth Tyson, MA, is first a mom, a childhood trauma consultant, author, CASA volunteer, and co-chair of the PA Child Abuse Prevention Team.
With a background as a family-based trauma therapist, she honed her expertise in stabilizing mental health crises within foster, kinship, and adoptive homes. Motivated by her therapeutic work, Beth founded Beth Tyson Trauma Consulting to spread awareness and advocate for trauma-responsive care across various organizations. Her commitment to empowering communities led her to pen three best-selling books, including therapeutic resources for children like “A Grandfamily for Sullivan” and “Sullivan Goes to See Mama.” Notably, she co-created the animated YouTube series “All Connected,” offering valuable insights into trauma recovery for teens. Beyond her professional endeavors, Beth cherishes her role as a mother, instilling her daughter with a passion for skiing and a penchant for making positive waves in the world.

Since 1999, eTransX has been in the business of connecting diverse information systems to support a coordinated system of care for those with health and social needs. As part of its solution set, eTransX offers a comprehensive, community-wide child and family well-being system (Wellbeing Care Community) that promotes thriving families, children and youth.
Wellbeing Care Community (WCC) enables well-being within the community by identifying specific family and children/youth needs, and facilitating coordination of community-based organizations’ (CBOs) program services to meet those identified needs. In the process, the WCC collects valuable information to track outcomes and evaluate what is working and not working to improve those outcomes.
As a cloud based, HIPAA and 42 CFR Part 2 (privacy regulations) compliant system, the WCC system can be easily and securely accessed by CBOs, participants and clients as part of a whole child, whole family, whole community approach to promote thriving families and children. In addition to supporting timely coordinated data sharing among its participants, WCC is also designed to easily interface with existing community-based systems as needed.
The benefits of a coordinated community approach using technology can help communities significantly scale efforts to promote thriving children and youth outcomes and reduce crime, suicide, school drop-out rates, and substance use disorders.
