Abstract

Do you know students who are neglected, abused, homeless, and/or live with parents who abuse alcohol or drugs? Do you know students who are aggressive, have poor impulse control, lack focus, learning difficulties, lack ability to regulate emotions? If you answered yes, then you have students who might be struggling to deal with their traumatic experiences. Come learn what you can do to help your students be successful.

Description

Participants will learn about adverse childhood experiences, trauma’s impact on health, relationships, and education. The session will also cover how participants can help counter the impact of trauma by fostering resiliency and compassion. We will look at behavior management, discuss some appropriate strategies, and practice some techniques related to mindfulness and breathing that can help. Participants will also learn about self-care due to compassion fatigue. Resources will be shared and lists of resources will be provided.
