Foster Care Training

We are all complex human beings and often find ourselves at work activated or triggered while supporting a youth in crises or sharing trauma. This is known as vicarious trauma. In this training we will dive into ways to recognize vicarious trauma and how to take care of ourselves as we experience it, and perhaps heal ourselves from it. We will explore different coping strategies to employ during a moment of upset as well as daily and weekly strategies as preventative measures. This presentation is interactive, so participants will be encouraged to share their wisdom and experiences of healing.
