Trauma 101 training focuses on understanding how trauma impacts the body and the brain, how people adapt to trauma, and what we can do as providers, caregivers and community members to support recovery and resiliency. The Trauma 101 training is not a training on a specific type of intervention but is focused on how we can gain a better understanding of trauma, and become trauma informed.
This course provides basic information on:
- Definitions of trauma
- Types of trauma
- How the brain and body respond to trauma and traumatic events
- Impact of trauma
- Adaptations
- Tuning in/Understanding how to interact
Due to grant support, this training is free of charge to participants.
Note: Trauma 101 is meant to be an introductory-level training to help understand trauma and its impact.
