Building Trauma-Informed and Resilient Communities:
Monthly Educational Groups 2022-2023
About This Course
A trauma-informed and resilient approach is one where communities, organizations, programs, and systems: (1) realize the prevalence and impact of trauma, (2) recognize the signs and symptoms of trauma in individuals, families, and groups, (3) respond by integrating the knowledge about trauma into policies, procedures and practices, and (4) resists practices that could cause more harm (SAMHSA, 2018). These monthly workshops, both face-to-face and virtual, are designed to assist participants with increasing their awareness and knowledge of trauma, including psychological trauma and vicarious trauma, and the key principles of a trauma-informed approach. Additionally, these monthly online workshops are designed to provide practical and evidence-based techniques and skills for how ministers, community leaders, and mental health professionals can develop trauma-informed and resilient communities.
The event is free however registration is required. Licensed professionals can receive CE’s.
