March 1 Webinar: Becoming a Trauma-Informed Parish

An understanding of trauma and its impact on us, practices which help restore, and three characteristics of a trauma informed parish.

Presenters: Mike Carotta & Scott Herd

We have been called to accompany others. What might trauma informed accompaniment look like? What role can we play in helping people navigate back from the impact of trauma? Suppose we intentionally developed a trauma informed parish?

This session offers a basic understanding of trauma and its impact on us, principles and practices which help restore, three characteristics of a trauma aware parish, and a free new parish-based resource.
