Fresno, CA Inspired by CRI and Paper Tigers with Jason Williams
In 2019, two strangers met at the CRI Conference and returned to Fresno inspired to act. Their collaboration led to the Fresno County Trauma and Resilience Network and Brain Wise Solutions Group. In five years, they’ve trained thousands using a neuroscience-based, trauma-informed approach. Join this session to see how one connection sparked a movement for lasting change.
Jason Williams co-founded the nonprofit, Brain Wise Solutions, after 20 years of dedication to children and families in Fresno County, CA. Jason received his first trauma-informed care training from CRI in 2019. He immediately took the concepts back to Central CA and began collaborating with others in the community to bring neuroscience and trauma-informed care principles and strategies to the people. As of 2025, Brain Wise Solutions has trained and collaborated with thousands of community members from multiple organizations to help people see themselves in a compassionate, loving way.
