Group Facilitation: The ART of Trauma-Informed Facilitation

Group Facilitation: The ART of Trauma-Informed Facilitation (6hr)

This training equips facilitators with tools to engage participants using trauma-informed Approaches, Responses and Techniques (ART). Trauma-informed facilitation creates brave spaces for individuals to integrate information and share their experiences in ways that support authentic connections with themselves and others. Using scaffolding techniques, facilitators will learn how to build safety in the room, engage participants respectfully when disclosures happen and create brave spaces for discomfort and shift to happen.

Objectives:

• Explore human awareness as the foundation for creating a trauma-informed facilitation style.
  
• Examine the principles of trauma-informed care as they relate to the Approach, Response and Technique of facilitation.
  
• Discover the wisdom in the room regarding tools and sustainability to limit harm and engage learning.
