Why Trauma-Informed Training?

Trauma-informed training allows educators to recognize the signs of trauma, respond with empathy, and avoid unintentional triggers that could hinder a student's progress.

Research shows that trauma-informed practices can lead to increased attendance, better engagement in learning, and enhanced overall student achievement.

Trauma-informed training equips educators with valuable tools to understand how trauma can affect a student's behavior and learning abilities.
