Register for our Facilitated Secondary Trauma Blended Learning Course

Secondary trauma does not occur in isolation, nor does the solution. Teachers must practice self-care, mindfulness, or other healing practices, but at a deeper level, the systems in our schools need to be adjusted to ensure a culture of caring and support for all individuals.

In this facilitated course, educators will identify the causes and implications of secondary trauma (also known as compassion fatigue) on themselves and develop a healing-centered practice that supports them in their work with students.

• Course runs October 3rd — November 7th
• Registration Closes: September 23, 2022

In this course you will:

• Define trauma and explain its prevalence among students in school
• Identify the causes and implications of secondary trauma (also known as compassion fatigue)
• Create and apply healing-centered, personal self-care practices to address the effects of secondary traumatic stress
• Develop a list of accessible resources for additional support to address compassion fatigue
