EDU-3020A Intro to Trauma & Resilience
Today, perhaps more than any other time, we need trauma-informed parents, teachers, faculty, staff, and institutions to address the needs of children and teens who have experienced traumatic events. In this Continuing Education Course, students will be introduced to key concepts, resources, and strategies that can be useful in day-to-day interactions with students and in classrooms. By the end of the course, students will have a richer understanding of what it means to use trauma-informed practices and infuse trauma-informed approaches in organizations.
