About This Workshop:
Understanding the deep secondary impact of helping work on community professionals who care for those in need is crucial. Trauma informed practices offer wise guidance for how we work with the people we care for, while trauma stewardship offers a big picture approach through which we can pay attention to our capacity to care for ourselves as we care for others. In this workshop, participants will learn, share, and practice with tools and materials that can help them build intentional pauses to observe and notice themselves and consider new practices to replace patterns that may not serve their wellness, their communities, or their work. Participants will self-select their level of engagement while learning together about the deep and real emotional impacts of care work. This workshop is designed for professionals working directly with people experiencing suffering, hardship, crisis, or trauma, and those who support, lead, or supervise them. We will explore both individual and organizational approaches to trauma stewardship in this workshop.
