Reduced Cost Training in the Online COSP Program
At Circle of Security International, we believe that promoting attachment security aligns with many other efforts to address social inequities. We think connection and secure attachment can be looked at as a human right and one of many social justice issues. Supporting caregivers to connect with young children more deeply strengthens communities and is central to our company’s mission. One way for Circle of Security International to address social inequities is to reduce financial access barriers to training in the COSP Program. Equity Seats support providers from economically developing countries and/or providers who serve marginalized communities or underserved populations to access the online COSP Facilitator training. Each recipient will receive a coupon code for an 85% discount to a future online COSP Facilitator training.
Equity Seats support providers from economically developing countries and/or providers who serve marginalized communities or underserved populations to access the online COSP Facilitator training. At this time, training is primarily available in English; we do have occasional online trainings in Spanish, however. We are only able to support online COSP Facilitator Trainings

Please Note: We view the COSP program to be a useful tool for providers from many disciplines supporting parents and families. Underserved communities, like any community, can contain families facing many risk conditions. For such families, the COSP program is often used as an “engagement tool” so that parents and other caregivers can focus on children’s attachment needs. However, ongoing multidimensional support is often needed to support stressed families, particularly those from marginalized communities.
Please return to this page during the next application window to submit your application.
Thank you!
