Recognizing trauma & cultivating wellness

This training helps us understand how toxic stress and trauma affect us. We will learn the connection between racism, our environments, and tough experiences. Fairness and justice are also factors that can affect our health. We’ll also learn about things that can help you and others bounce back from hard experiences. We want everyone to have the knowledge and tools to create safe and supportive spaces.
