Foundations of Trauma Informed Care Videos
Welcome to our free, online, Asynchronous Offering of the Foundations of TIC material. We encourage learners to choose their own adventure and engage with this content however it feels right. The videos cover what we consider to be foundational topics of trauma informed care and were intentionally designed to be short in length in hopes this format may cater to all types of schedules. Accompanying the videos is a 15-page workbook with thought-provoking questions to aid in the reflection and application of the information. Follow along independently or engage a larger group and use the workbook questions to facilitate dialogue.
