Being Trauma Informed - What is it and why does it matter? 

Workshop with Janet Barry

(for DCC Board and Staff)

In this workshop we will discuss what trauma is and learn to recognize the symptoms. We will consider how organizations can become more trauma informed by implementing principles and practical approaches that effectively support all individuals. We will also learn techniques and de-escalation strategies to enhance support when a person is experiencing distress. The intersections between trauma and spirituality will also be explored.
