This workshop will focus on concrete strategies that move us toward fully supporting our students impacted by ongoing and past trauma. As educators invested in the Common Principles, we already have a head start on developing the types of settings that support students impacted by trauma; this workshop will look at the path forward from there. We'll briefly review some definitions and impacts of trauma, and then dive into exploring strategies and adapting them to our own settings. We will focus equally on the external shifts we may make in our classrooms as on the internal shifts to our own mindset and stance toward these learners, including an emphasis on self-awareness and self-care.
