Workshop Content

There are 3 workshops:

  1. Building Organizational Resilience: Burnout + Compassion Fatigue (1.5-2 hours)
  2. Implementing a Culturally Safe & Trauma-Informed Approach (3-4 hours)
  3. Trauma-Informed & Culturally Safe Leadership (3-4 hours)

Time estimates include 15-minute breaks and is dependent on discussion time. If you’re short on time, you may wish to have everyone do the online courses ahead of time so that the content itself is review, and you can spend more time on the activities. The courses will take 1-2 hours each to complete.

Start with the Burnout workshop first. This gives everyone a chance to think about themselves first and how they care for each other, before learning more about how they can care for clients with trauma-informed practices.

For the Leadership workshop, ensure participants complete the Implementing a Culturally Safe & Trauma-Informed Approach workshop or online course first, to understand concepts that the Leadership workshop will only review.
