Trauma Informed Mentoring

This session will explore leadership and mentoring through a trauma-informed lens. It will also provide an opportunity to reflect on both the mentor and mentee roles when working with families and children where there is/has been relational trauma.

This session is offered on different days and at different times to support educators to be able to attend.
