These workshop help participants to develop a strong trauma-responsive practice focus. They are aimed at kaimahi newer to the social service sector, kaimahi who are new to trauma-responsive practice training, or those who want to refresh their knowledge in this area. It is led by Dr Nicola Atwool.
The first two sessions will provide a combination of information sharing and small group activities to allow a focus on implications for participants’ own practice. The third session will take place two weeks later and will begin with feedback from participants about their experience of implementing trauma-responsive practice. Challenges and barriers will be discussed and participants will have the opportunity to develop strategies to support implementation.
