Sharon Colomb - scolomb@uw.edu

Sherry Colomb is a Development and Facilitation Specialist working with the Caregiver Training Team. With a background 
in Elderly/Disabled Adult case management, Sherry’s interest in child welfare began with her decision to become foster 
parent in 2005. Training and support were essential in her personal journey as a foster and adoptive parent, and she 
now feels privileged to be able to support other caregivers in this way.

Sherry finds one of the most rewarding parts of her job to be the opportunity to share her passion for seeing families 
reunify, and watching caregivers catch the vision for the unique and powerful role they can play in this process.

With deep respect for the value of our caregiver’s time, Sherry strives to make the caregiver courses the Alliance 
develops and presents meaningful, engaging and easily utilized in the in- home environment.

In 2021 Sherry became a Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) ® Practitioner and is excited to be able to share 
TBRI Principles with the caregivers of Washington State.
