From 2:00 PM until 3:30 PM ET
At Virtual Event
Presented by PreventConnect / info@preventconnect.org
Trauma-informed principles are often relegated to solely mental health or crisis intervention work when in reality, trauma-informed principles can benefit people in all sorts of scenarios, sectors, and work environments. In the current context of the Great Resignation, many are beginning to identify the ways trauma and secondary trauma contribute to organizational burnout in the absence of a trauma-informed work culture. Join PreventConnect on this web conference where guests will discuss how they’ve engaged businesses and diverse work environments and sectors in integrating trauma-informed principles to their workplaces and how internal organizational shifts are key to improving relationships with communities involved in sexual and intimate partner violence prevention.
OBJECTIVES
- Describe trauma-informed principles that are crucial and applicable outside of mental health services and crisis response settings
- Identify connections between organizational culture change and trauma-informed sexual and intimate partner violence prevention
