This interactive Disability and Children’s Ministry Resource Group session introduces foundational principles of trauma-informed care and applies them to supporting children with mental health struggles and their families. Participants will explore trauma, Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), and practices that foster sensitivity, safety, and accompaniment in diverse congregational contexts, including communities with recent immigration histories. The conversation will also examine common, well-meaning Christian responses that may not adequately reflect attunement to trauma survivors or people experiencing mental health struggles.

Price: $25 or register for all 4 sessions for $79 (a savings of $21)
