About This Course

Whether or not it is fully recognized, human services workers are working with survivors of trauma.  Given the prevalence and impact of violence amongst this population, the need for integrated services that are informed of trauma theory and include interventions designed to address the impact of trauma is evident. This introductory training aims to increase awareness and understanding on the part of services providers at all levels of the prevalence of trauma in consumers, the impact of that trauma on consumers, their behaviors and beliefs, and finally, how a more trauma-informed approach will enhance work with survivors of all ages.

Learning Objectives: 

• Participants will understand what is trauma and its prevalence, and trauma related symptoms such as dissociation and flashbacks.
• Participants will understand how symptoms and behaviors (such as substance use, compulsions, and mental health symptoms) have served as adaptations or coping mechanisms.
• Participants will understand how addressing trauma and abuse in survivor's lives will enhance substance addiction recovery and mental health recovery.

Intended Audience: 

Clinical and direct care staff, support staff, and administrative staff
