Trauma-informed care is an approach to engaging people with histories of trauma that recognizes the presence of trauma symptoms and acknowledges the role that trauma has played in their lives. One of the key components of building organizational capacity for trauma-informed care is professional education and development. Staff needs education about how trauma affects consumers seeking services, what trauma-informed care is, how to create safe environments for persons served, and ways to avoid re-traumatizing practices. The Trauma 101 & Recovery training is a prerequisite to becoming a Trauma Trainer (attendance at the Trauma Train-the-Trainer Workshop).

This training is sponsored by Region 3 Behavioral Health Services, Central Nebraska Council on Alcoholism & Addictions, Hall County Community Collaborative (H3C) and the Behavioral Health Education Center of Nebraska (BHECN).

Space is limited; advanced registration is required. Register by November 26th.
