Re: Building Resiliency Workshops in Seattle
I would like to connect with anyone in this community, who is delivering Trauma-Informed Care to Adults and utilizing the ACE study as a platform. To this date, I have not found anyone who wants to connect with me. I am an LMHCA & CDP with a private practice who would like to provide workshops in the community. Please contact me if you are interested! Respectfully, Alfred awhite@seattlerecovery.org

How does a regional healthcare organization integrate trauma-informed care?
Slowly, but at warp speed. That’s what it feels like to take on educating 16,000 staff member in 21 hospitals that serve 29 counties, says Becky Haas, trauma informed administrator for Ballad Health. Turning around a culture, especially a health culture that’s more familiar with doing things the “traditional” way rather than embracing change, will take time and lots of repetition.

Wisconsin state agencies end year one of trauma-informed learning community; goal is to be first trauma-informed state
Here in California, many people think that it’s only liberal Democrats who have a corner on championing the science of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and putting it into practice.

They ask "What happened to you?" rather than "What's wrong with you?" as a frame when they create juvenile detention centers where kids don’t fight, reduce...
