This academy provides administrators with an understanding of the importance of creating a professional development plan for their districts and individual school buildings that will provide appropriate trauma responsive training for their staff. Participants will leave with a template which serves as a continuum for moving staff from trauma-aware to trauma-informed, ensuring that key protocols and strategies are in place for dealing with students who have been impacted by trauma.
This training is relevant for building principals, school leadership teams, counselors, social workers, community mental health agencies, health department personnel, and school resource officers.
