Arizona Trauma Informed Faith Coalition - June Monthly Connect

The AZTIFC seeks to build resilient faith-based organizations in order to facilitate sensitive care, training, resource sharing, advocacy, and social movement; Not compromising our own faith traditions, but multiplying collaboration for the greater good of Tucson and the surrounding area.

Typically we meet monthly on the 3rd Thursday of most months from 11AM-1PM. The meetings will be hosted at Hope City Church and free lunch for those attending is included and provided by Pantano Christian Church.

Work, home, life stress. We are all trying to rebound from something. Did you know your stress response is wired into your nervous system, making it nearly impossible to create a state of balance within your world until you know how to take back the stress and create true wellness in your own body and the world around you? Our physiological and psychological selves are intertwined and wreak havoc on each other until we know how to control both into balance. Join Kelley's workshop to learn how to embrace the stressors around us, and overcome and thrive in the process!

Kelley Meshirer, MA, LASAC, CCTP, travels throughout the U.S. educating on subjects like maladaptive coping, resilience, post-traumatic growth, and how the body operates with both a psychological stress response and a physiological stress response through the polyvagal nervous system. Additionally, her passion for working with first responders, military, and healthcare professionals brought her to Thrive with Chaos, a private counseling practice where Kelley is an Addiction Counselor and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. Kelley co-founded K2 Critical Solutions to better serve her community by providing training, clinical support, and critical incident debriefings. Kelley has her masters in Addiction Counseling and is working toward her doctorate in community counseling & trauma. She holds several certificates in the wellness arena spanning suicide intervention to critical incident stress management to resiliency programs for both adults and children.

We hope that you will join us!
