Risking Connection®
Risking Connection® is a three day foundational course on the effects of trauma, how survivors can heal, and how helpers can care for themselves and each other while doing this difficult work. It teaches a relational framework and skills for working with survivors of traumatic experiences. The focus is on relationship as healing.
If your organization is developing trauma-informed processes and systems, Risking Connection® organizational consulting can help you ensure that your system of care—from intake through follow-up—is grounded in trauma-focused and trauma-informed thinking.
Risking Connection® provides an operating philosophy that supports the transformation to trauma-informed care in all settings (including mental health and addiction services, crime victim assistance, veteran and military family support, schools and child serving agencies, faith communities, and corrections). Risking Connection® creates a robust contextual foundation for many of the most-used interventions and processes for helping people heal, whether it’s CBT, DBT, EMDR, or any other trauma-informed intervention.
