About
This session is for professionals working within early years and school settings (educators, teachers, nurses and wellbeing staff from kindergartens, maternal and child health, early childhood education, and supported playgroups).The training will focus on working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people and their families to support culturally safe and trauma-informed practice, covering:
• background of colonisation, and the impacts of intergenerational trauma on Aboriginal peoples' social and emotional wellbeing.
• understanding of how trauma impacts the developing mind, brain and behaviour.
• tools needed to provide trauma-informed responses to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children to create safety and support their long-term development.
