Healing-Centered Engagement: The Power of Community & Connection
February 18 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
Significant impact can be made in the lives of children when caregivers move beyond trauma-informed to healing-centered. That’s why we are focusing this training on healing-centered approaches for caregivers of children. Research shows that the deepest healing and connection happens outside therapy offices. Webinar participants will leave with an understanding of what creates trauma and its impact on individuals, families, communities, and cultures, identify healing-centered engagement, and learn practical ways to support healing.
