We know more than ever before about how to help children and families exposed to violence and other adversities.
Domestic violence is a leading predictor of other Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). This interactive training uses a healing-center approach to examine the connection between domestic violence and other childhood adversities within a resilience framework that focuses on strengths and skills.
Topics include how a prevention plan for vicarious trauma is the first building block of being healing-centered, the pathway of stress in the brain and body, and practical tools to support children, parents/caregivers and families who have experienced trauma.
Participants will be directed to an open access, online toolkit that provides links to resources and best practices.
