Literacy in Community (LINC) is pleased to present a series of three workshops that will provide partners with a deeper understanding of childhood trauma and the developmental impacts on young children. This training will help partners understand risk and protective factors and ways to better support families exposed to traumatic events. These workshops are facilitated by The Bowen Center’s Project Launch, an initiative that aims to expand service capacity, training and coordination of behavioral health and wrap-around services to promote early childhood well-being in its clinic as well as in other sites that serve children.
Trauma & Immigration
Virtual - Thursday, February 27 at 9AM
Register: Trauma & Immigration
This training focuses on the trauma experienced by young children and families pre-, during- and post-migration and how this may affect the behaviors, well-being, and development of young children. The training will help the participants understand the migration system in the United States and how this applies to working with young children, and some basics around discussing migration-related trauma with families.
Trauma & Development
Virtual - Thursday, March 6 at 9 AM
Register: Trauma & Development
After this training, participants will have a deeper understanding of childhood trauma and the developmental impacts on young children. Participants will also learn the signs of disruption or impairment across developmental domains and the long-term effects of repeated trauma exposure. This training will help participants understand the risk and protective factors and ways to better support families exposed to traumatic events.
Trauma & ADHD
Virtual - Thursday, March 13 at 9AM
Register: Trauma & ADHD
This training explores the correlation between trauma and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Participants will gain a fundamental understanding of how traumatic experiences can impact the development and manifestation of ADHD symptoms. Participants will learn to distinguish between trauma-related behaviors and typical ADHD symptoms, facilitating early identification and intervention. Additionally, participants will learn strategies to implement trauma-informed approaches, enabling them to provide effective support and foster resilience in individuals affected by both trauma and ADHD.
