3/11/10 Mental Health Workshop: Supporting Trauma-Sensitive Classrooms

Due to limited registration, the topic for the March 11^th workshop has been changed to “Supporting Trauma-Sensitive Classrooms.” We hope you will encourage your staff and colleagues to take advantage of this workshop.

Supporting Trauma-Sensitive Classrooms will be presented by Laurie Burnett, McKinney-Vento Supportive Schools Program, Framingham Public Schools.

Workshop Description: (Registration Form.)

The significance of trauma is that educators may not be aware that a student is learning or responding under a trauma response. Behaviors, learning patterns or social skills may be misinterpreted or mislabeled. Traumatized children are vulnerable; school personnel are the critical link to intervention with sensitivity and awareness. Best practices create an environment where students can learn in a safe and positive environment. Trauma sensitive practice is a must for every educator's toolkit.
