Are you an educator or do you support educators? We would love to have you join us for our School-Based Resilience Empowerment Project Training of Trainers!

The School REP training’s goal is to engage educators and administrators to increase awareness and understanding of the neurobiological and behavioral impacts of trauma, toxic stress, and ACEs on adults and students; and to equip them to implement processes and practices that increase resilience, reduce teacher burnout and student absenteeism, and increase teacher retention and student success beyond the three-year scope of the project.

Resilience Empowerment Project (REP) Purpose Statement

The Resilience Empowerment Project provides a foundation for community building while facilitating the development of practical tools and strategies to support educators, community organizations, adolescents, and families to gain an awareness of the impact of trauma, toxic stress, and ACEs and how to build resilience. Our goal is to expand the number of communities and schools that are knowledgeable and ready to take action on understanding: 

• strategies to build protective and promotive factors within individuals and communities as part of primary prevention efforts.
• resiliency and trauma-informed care strategies, skills, and resources to support those who have experienced adversity/trauma.
• the importance of creating systems and environments that provide physical and emotional safety and minimize re-traumatization.
• the effects of trauma on our brain and body and the role that it plays in maladaptive behaviors and difficulties in learning.
• the process of becoming trauma-aware, trauma-sensitive, and ultimately trauma-informed is an ongoing, recursive journey, not a destination.
• strategies to build protective and promotive factors within individuals and communities as part of primary prevention efforts.
• resiliency and trauma-informed care strategies, skills, and resources to support those who have experienced adversity/trauma.
