Grounded in research from the fields of education psychology, emotional intelligence, and neurobiology, this workshop will offer a toolkit for educators, principals, healthcare staff, and school counselors whose work serves large populations exposed to varying levels of childhood trauma and adversity. Participants will understand the key pieces to implement a trauma-informed strategy in their program or organization. They will unpack the concept of trauma and self-care as it relates to school-based contexts, explore ways to engage colleagues, and lead implementation efforts that build a sturdy foundation for trauma-informed approaches. They will deepen their awareness of resources, methods, and frameworks to guide their work. They will explore the idea that a trauma-informed approach supports the well-being of the entire school community which includes adults AND children. Participants will have the opportunity to collaborate and build off each others’ expertise.
