INTRODUCTORY: Assumes little or no understanding of the brain and body science behind trauma-informed education or ACEs science. Defines terms and uses prevalence data and research to help attendees be able to understand the overall impact of trauma on learning, social and emotional development. Encourages the shifting of attendees’ understanding of behavior as communication. These sessions should be targeted to first-time attendees wanting to build a firm trauma-informed foundation. ADVANCED: Assumes a basic understanding of the brain/body response to trauma and ACEs science (and does not spend time reviewing this material). Builds on knowledge attendees bring on how trauma impacts a child’s development and how behaviors are a manifestation of a child’s inner working model. These sessions should be targeted toward returning attendees and those who already have deep involvement in trauma-informed education.
