Course Description

The children you advocate for and in many instances, their parents, have all experienced trauma in their lives. This webinar walks you through the definition of trauma and how it can be manifested by a student’s behavior and performance in school. You will also receive important and useful information on how to work within the school setting to change the narrative from, “What is wrong with this student?” to “What has happened to this student and how do we help?”
