Together, we’ll discuss trauma and its transmission, the evolution of our understanding of trauma, and the difference between individual and community-oriented approaches to trauma. As we learn more about trauma, it is becoming clear that trauma cannot be solved by focusing only on after-the-fact, one- person-at-a-time strategies. Increasingly, advocates and academics are calling for more attention to promising prevention approaches that impact whole communities. In this webinar, we’ll highlight different frameworks and models of trauma-informed approaches in order to tailor prevention work to communities impacted by trauma. We’ll also identify tools and resources to support ongoing, innovative partnerships to prevent trauma in the first place.Trauma is a critical issue and focus across OJJDP's Youth Violence Prevention Network. OJJDP, PI and DSG are excited to have dynamic speakers guiding the discussion:
Speakers:
Jane Hallday Goldman, PhD, MSW, Director of the Service Systems program at the National Center for Child Traumatic Stress, coordinates projects related to trauma-informed child and family systems.
Moderator:
