Trauma responsive practice implies a working knowledge of not only what signs and symptoms exist with trauma but also, how trauma impacts brain function and the individual’s well-being. Participants will expand their understanding of complex trauma (ACES) and its impacts on coping and learning. Principles of trauma informed practice and opportunities for school-based intervention will be explored.

As a result of this training, participant will:

• Understand how the brain receives and remembers trauma.

• Recognize the cumulative effect of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACES).

• Understand the impact trauma(s) has on the child/youth’s regulating and coping.

• Identify critical points of intervention; when behaviors escalate, and learning is halted.

• Develop skills in coaching/supporting regulation.

• Identify opportunities to foster a ‘safe’ classroom and teach skills in well-being and coping.
