Complex trauma and toxic stress are common experiences for the children and families that we work with. Trauma from ACEs and other adversities can have a significant, life-long impact on their lives. It is our jobs to help them heal from this trauma and to build resilience that will strengthen them against adversities throughout their lives. This training will look at practical steps that professionals and caregivers can use to help children heal and to build resilience. Among other things, this training explores the importance of connections for children, what to know when making mental health referrals, how to use play to help children build skills and teach mindfulness as a self-regulation tool.
