The facilitator will offer information on trauma-informed approaches to polishing the protective shields of parents and youth in the face of danger and violence, using strategies such as identifying problematic situations, utilizing effective communication skills and emotional regulation, and engaging social support networks. Factors that increase the risk of negative consequences of stress and those that promote recovery and resilience will also be explored.
