Advanced Mentor Training:

TRAUMA-INFORMED MENTORING PART 2 w/ Kelly Vagts

February 15th

5:30-6:30pm

HMK Elementary School

A Trauma Lens Part 2: Helping mentors implement a trauma-informed approach with mentees and families.

Part 1 guided mentors in developing a trauma lens so that we don’t take a child’s behavior personally, to help us look past the behavior.

Part 2 will introduce specific ways to help a mentor connect with a child who has experienced trauma. It will include examples of how to teach children brain basics and self-regulation skills, how to create a safe environment, and self-care and self-regulation tips for the mentor. Any mentor can attend Part 2; there is no prerequisite. However, Part 1 one was a full house! Arrive early for a seat.
