Advanced Trauma Responsive Practices
Description
Early childhood trauma is the most common type of trauma, and also the most detrimental. In addition, trauma responsive practices, when put into place early in a child’s life, are more likely to benefit children’s development than practices put into place later in life. Relationally-positive experiences are, in fact, the most beneficial form of intervention to address early child trauma. Daycare providers, therefore, work with a high percentage of children exposed to trauma and are in a unique position to provide relationally-rich supports. Use of trauma-responsive practices may decrease daycare provider stress. This training builds on a previously delivered “Trauma Responsive Practices” training and provides more space for learning specific tools to use to instill a sense of safety and security for trauma-exposed children, and to help decrease trauma-related emotional reactivity.
