Trauma Responsive Teaching

Trauma “results from an event, series of events, or set of circumstances experienced by an individual as physically or emotionally harmful or life-threatening with lasting adverse effects on the individual’s functioning and mental, physical, social, emotional, or spiritual well-being” (SAMHSA, 2014). Children who have experienced trauma are all around us, including in our classrooms and schools, affecting their ability to feel safe and learn successfully.

Investing in professional development to address the needs of these children is crucial. By providing educators with the appropriate support, tools, and strategies for both individual and whole classroom interventions, we can foster positive learning outcomes. By equipping our teachers and administrators with the necessary skills and knowledge, we can ensure the social-emotional and academic success of children who have experienced trauma.
