This webinar will focus on trauma-informed education, which examines the ways trauma impacts how a student is able show up to learn or be present. Trauma-informed education takes bullying, poverty, racism, sexism, violence and other adversities into account when we are evaluating student behaviors and determining consequences. We will cover the principles of being trauma-informed, how to create nurturing relationships with students experiencing trauma, what consequences look like in this model, and more! There will be time for both listening and discussion with fellow educators.
