There are so many traumatic experiences, which can have a long-term impact. When children and youth enter our educational/after school settings, we frequently don't know their trauma history but might see the behavioral, social, and emotional consequences which may include: substance abuse, low self-esteem, depression, angry outbursts, self-harm, and violence. We will explore specific steps to de-escalate trauma triggers.

Learning Objectives:

After the completion of this webinar, participants will learn:

• How trauma impacts the brains of children and youth
