Winter 2022 Foundational Training Series - Feeling Safe, Seen and Heard

As we develop and implement strategies across the state to build multi-racial and multi-class people power, we must consider the realities of accessibility and inclusion of diverse groups in our movement spaces. Specifically, we must consider the role that trauma plays in how people show up in our organizations, as well as the extent to which people feel safe, seen and heard in them. This training aims to define trauma, to articulate the impact of trauma, and to begin to develop among participants the ability to recognize, understand and respond to trauma in team settings and movement spaces. This training also explores methods for healing from trauma on individual, interpersonal and institutional levels.
