Over 80% of all people under supervision in the criminal justice system have experienced trauma or show symptoms of trauma. Additionally, probation, parole and victim service providers encounter a high percentage of victims that are experiencing trauma. In underserved and Native American communities, it is critically important for criminal justice professionals to have skills to recognize and address historical trauma, generalized trauma, especially when there are limited services. Without being trauma-informed, we miss a vital component of responsivity when attending to client and victim.
Upon completion of this webinar, participants will be able to:
Gain a deeper understanding of the impact of trauma on the brain
Learn at least three skills to attend to a trauma response
Learn at least three ways to recognize and respond to their own trauma-response
