WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND – Trauma is prevalent in our world and has an impact on many of the people we interact with, including our congregants, neighbors, care seekers and colleagues. Compassionate and trauma-informed care is essential to providing effective support and building vibrant sustainable communities.
