Overview:
Trauma can span across generations and settings. Trauma can be Interpersonal and external. Trauma can affect everyone. Trauma impacts entire communities.
Nearly half of all children have been exposed to at least one adverse childhood experience (ACE), such as poverty, divorce, neglect, substance abuse, or parent incarceration.
This interactive workshop shows adults working with children, specifically adults working in urban environments and with children of color from Pre-K to 5th grade, on how to integrate trauma-informed strategies into daily practice through an expanded focus on:
1. The experiences and challenges of students impacted by ACEs, including suicidal tendencies, cyberbullying, and drugs.
2. Behavior as a form of communication and how to explicitly teach new behaviors
3. How to mitigate trauma and build innate resiliency
This 2-hour intensive is designed with an intersectional (LGBTQ+, SES and Class and Social Work) and racial equity lens to provide adults with a deeper understanding of the impact of childhood trauma on the educational and life experiences of young Children of Color. In addition to techniques, strategies, and tools to implement into your environments, adults will also be provided with the tools to support children who have the most need while practicing necessary self-care to continue to serve them.
Why I Should Attend:
Students cannot divorce themselves from events in their homes or communities simply by stepping into the classroom or community space. This is especially true for students of color who come from communities that experience the effects of historical trauma and ongoing racial injustice. You are in a unique position to open up discussion about these issues, to provide guidance and modeling for constructive expression, and thus create the space for healing-centered engagement.
Expand your capacity to foster resilience and success for your students and yourself by joining us for this 2-hour session.
