Trauma Experience and Support Workshop
This course will now be offered through distance learning.  The Zoom portion will take place from 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. on April 3, 2020.

This distance learning workshop will consist of lecture and discussion around the manifestations and the effects of trauma. We will explore different types of trauma, and we will look at how trauma affects development and how trauma manifests in the body. We will look at various lenses for better understanding trauma such as the Polyvagal Theory and Gentle Enhancement, and we will examine mindful body awareness practices for supporting experience. In addition to exploring these concepts, we will also examine and practice applicable communication strategies for offering support to students. We will engage basic Non-Violent Communication (NVC) skills, we will discuss how to give students the tools to access positive state changes, and we will examine the aspects of co-regulation. 

This course will now be offered through distance learning.  
Date and time: (Due to COVID-19 precautions, this course will no longer be face to face on April 3, 2020.  It will be offered through distance learning only.  Participants can expect 50% of this course to be independent assignments and 50% virtual interfacing on Zoom. The instructor will provide a link to Zoom and the materials you will need.  Zach Morris will provide you with the materials by March 27, 2020.  The Zoom portion will take place from 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. on April 3, 2020.  Please have worked through the material Zach sends you by April 3, 2020.)
