Spotlight: Trauma-Responsive Family Engagement Strategies that Promote Resilience
This 1-Hour Spotlight Training offers an overview for early childhood providers of strategies in working with parents and families that are trauma-responsive and healing engaged. A 1-Hour Professional Development Certificate will automatically be issued upon completion.
• We will start by introducing the concept of burnout and the impacts burnout and compassion fatigue can have on us physically, emotionally, cognitively and spiritually
• We will introduce you to the Zones of Self-Awareness which is a tool to help you tune in and detect when your stress response system has been activated and to notice your body’s individual reactions to stress.
• We then describe some concrete practical strategies that you can use to build and strengthen your self-regulation (calming your stress response system) and strategies you can use for grounding in times of stress.
We learned so much about what we were doing well and so many ways we can go deeper in our family engagement strategies.
