SUMMARY:Teaching Children Through a Trauma Lens
DESCRIPTION:Join Trying Together for the upcoming session\, “Teaching Children Through a Trauma Lens”. \nResearch continues to show the detrimental effects that complex trauma has on the developing brain with our most vulnerable population. Over time\, these young children are at risk for developmental delays\, limited positive relationships\, and a host of other difficulties. Our early education classrooms can create safe\, responsive\, and equitable environments to assist in reducing these harmful effects. This presentation will identify different types of trauma\, how young children with trauma may present in the classroom\, and supportive strategies teachers can implement to foster environments that encourage healing. \nUnConference: Creating a Safe Place with Trauma-Informed Care\nThis session is a part of Trying Together’s upcoming UnConference. Between February 8-18\, expert-led workshops will share content related to trauma-informed care. We begin the UnConference with keynote speaker Dr. Veirdre Jackson and dive into how we can create an environment of healing through equity and trust. Following the keynote\, workshop sessions include how to identify family stressors\, how to provide responsive care-giving for children experiencing trauma\, and an overview of the recently launched Rapid Response Team from Trying Together. \nIndividuals can learn more and register on Trying Together’s website.
