Students in our classrooms have experienced or are experiencing ongoing trauma. The impact of trauma can be long-lasting, far-reaching, and impact studentsâ€™ ability to access their education. Trauma also presents itself in each student differently. All behavior is a form of communication. This series will explore how we can help make our schools and classrooms more friendly and supportive for students to manage the impact of trauma. Participants will learn and apply strategies to help their team get to the why behind behavior through increasing felt safety, connection, and self regulation. Throughout this series, participants will explore the key components needed to build relationships with students who have complex behavior challenges.Â
