Trauma Informed-care WOrkshops

Many organizations understand the importance of utilizing a trauma-informed approach in their services. Our workshops are created to increase the impact of your trauma-informed work by addressing trauma and violence within a broader context of oppression and power.

​These workshops assist participants with understanding the interconnections between oppression and trauma in a workplace context, and increase skills at effectively responding on client and systems levels.


Foundations of Trauma-Informed Care

Foundations of Trauma-Informed Care addresses the complexity and dynamics of trauma, intersections of trauma and social identities, power, and privilege, and the principles of trauma informed care.

Participants will engage in activities and case examples to learn how to integrate principles of trauma-informed care into their setting. Participants will learn how to identify trauma reactions in clients in the context of social identities and power and strategies for implementing trauma informed care at the individual and institutional levels.

​This workshop is strongly recommended for a direct service or supervisory audience who work with clients who experience trauma.

Dynamics of complex-trauma
