Advanced Trauma Informed Care
Are you looking for a deep-dive into the topic of trauma-informed care? Join us for this unique learning experience where you will closely examine what trauma-informed care looks like. Come explore the impact of relationships on neurobiology, learn about the prevalence of different types of trauma, and improve your ability to integrate trauma-informed practices with children, families, and staff. This course will also address self-care and allow you to reflect on how your own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors can support regulation and resilience for yourself and those you interact with. You will complete the series better prepared to provide individualized, responsive care for the children you serve. Our intention is to include time for you to learn, be heard, pause, and reflect in a respectful space that allows personal growth and inner wisdom to emerge. This class is a long-term commitment providing 2 year’s worth of MERIT credit. Space is limited so participants are asked to carefully consider their interest before registering. Participation requires about 15 hours total of homework, in addition to attendance at 8 live, online classes using Zoom. Full class attendance and homework completion provides 27 hours of credit in MERIT between September, 2024 and December, 2024. Here’s what a recent participant said about this course: “I just wanted to share that I was definitely not expecting when I signed up for this class how much I was going to learn about myself…and the ways trauma has impacted my life. It’s been such a gentle scaffolding with such useful tools. And I know the tools will work because I see them working in me and the way I treat myself.” *Please check that all dates will work for you as attendance is required to fully complete the class.
