Trauma informed care helps us to create safer learning spaces, integrate basic knowledge of trauma reactions and understand just how widespread the impacts of trauma really are. It's a crucial part of any wellbeing conversation.
I highly recommend this as a great starting point for someone wanting more tools for supporting themselves and others.
