Trauma, Voice, and Belonging: Creating Responsive Learning Spaces *IN PERSON* presented by Wendy Braxton – 8:30-2:30pm

Students carry their experiences into the classroom, and for many, those experiences include trauma. This workshop explores how to create culturally responsive environments that also acknowledge and address the impact of trauma on learning. Educators will examine strategies that center empathy, student voice, and inclusive practices to help every learner feel safe, seen, and supported. Participants will learn how to recognize trauma responses, build restorative relationships, and lead with compassion. We’ll also explore how culturally responsive teaching practices and trauma-informed care intersect to promote healing and empowerment. “Students don’t need us to fix them-they need us to believe in them.” -Unknown- Eligible for 6 hours CTLE credit. Can use 1 consortium seat. If district pays, district approval must be confirmed prior to start of session.
