Community Partners Conference Aug 21, 2025
Moving from Surviving to Thriving: A Community Partners Conference on Trauma Informed Care.
Are you a service provider dedicated to helping others, but sometimes find yourself asking, "Why are we going to talk about trauma? Why is it important?"
We invite you to shift that question to: "What do I know about trauma and its effects on the human population?"
The reality is profound:
Do you know how many people are affected by at least one traumatic event in their lifetime?
Do you know how many of your peers are exposed to and affected by Secondary or Vicarious Trauma?
A survey conducted in October 2024 revealed that 100% of 180 participants answered yes to experiencing at least one Adverse Childhood Experience.
We believe it's vitally important for all of us, especially as service providers, to acknowledge and address the effects of trauma, on not only us, but those we serve.
This conference is your opportunity to empower yourself and others. We must learn to move forward without allowing the effects of trauma to dictate our next steps We must learn from the past and allow it to lead us with a resilience that empowers the future. We have a responsibility to take care of ourselves, our consumers, and those working alongside us.
