This training provides two days of practical support for K-12 teachers with information about the brain, trauma and social emotional learning.

Are you overwhelmed with the demands of meeting academic standards? We now know that social emotional skills are as important as academic achievement and yet maybe you have a hard time just getting students to sit and listen! Young people learn when they feel safe and cared for, but perhaps the kind of supportive relationships you dreamed of when you entered the profession, inspired by the idea of shaping and molding young lives, seems a far-off reality given the degree of trauma – childhood, intergenerational and community – that your students bring to the classroom.
