The theme for this year’s Trauma Sensitive Schools Symposium is “Strengthening Our Foundation: The Building Blocks to Becoming Trauma Informed”.
We will host a range of engaging sessions that will expand participants’ knowledge of trauma-sensitive school systems and educational approaches – particularly focusing on the foundational elements of what it means to be trauma-informed, how this shows up in school systems across the lifespan, and the wide-reaching impacts of trauma-informed education of students, families, staff, and our communities.

Purpose: The Cultural Revitalization Initiative seeks to encourage all sectors to create the opportunity for “belonging” through continued education and the transformation of policy and procedure that results in “othering.” The Initiative hopes to shift cultural norms by creating opportunities to share a variety of cultural practices, foods, rituals, ceremony, arts, various codes of ethics and traditional values. We hope to reconnect BIPOC to their sacred traditions and cultivate respect, safety and equity for all people.
