To be a trauma responsive school means to have an understanding of the negative impact of trauma on a person’s physical and mental health. For educators, it means to have an awareness of how trauma is prevalent in students’ behavior, learning, and overall well-being. Trauma-informed schools have staff who understand the importance of the 4R’s of trauma-informed support. According to the NCTSN, those four R’s are:
Realizing the impact that trauma has on a student and/or entire community
Recognizing signs of trauma
Responding to the needs of those impacted by trauma
Resisting re-traumatization
FYSCPs can participate in the Trauma Responsive Schools: The Four Pillars Training Series and Neurosequential Model in Education (NME) pilot through FYSCP TAP. Please contact Mindy Corless at corless_mindy@lacoe.edu for more information.
