Trauma Informed Care in the Schools

Trauma Informed Care is catching on. Today, I had the privilege of spending several hours with about 40 fellow staff members (Teacher's Assistants) at work. We talked about Trauma Informed Care. Most had never been exposed to these concepts, but the entire group seemed to soak in the information.

It is an honor to work in a school district that is thinking about Trauma, and its impact on the kids we serve.

School is starting up again - and I haven't had much time to blog. I've got a few more topics in the hopper. Once things settle down a bit, I'll post more.

One thing I've been thinking about a lot lately is how easy it is to "preach" the concepts of Trauma Informed Care - but how hard it is to implement. Something I want to work on - for sure.

More soon.
