Spokane, WA, public health nurses create trauma-sensitive toolkit for parents/caregivers

Alicia St. Andrews 11/10/1511:16 AM

Public health nurses at Spokane Regional Health District (SRHD) developed a 178-page toolkit -- 1*2*3 Care -- for caregivers of children. They define caregivers as parents, grandparents, child care providers, teachers, and others who care for children daily.

They describe the toolkit as supporting caregivers on their journey towards "trauma sensitivity".

The toolkit can be downloaded as a whole, or individual topics can be downloaded separately. The toolkit also includes handouts for caregivers.

The topics include:

The Brain -- Stress and early brain development, understanding adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), and accompanying parent handouts.
Resilience
Attachment
Cues
Emotions
Emotional Regulation
Behavior
Discipline
Repair
Self-Care
Military Families
