About this Event
Helix Human Services presents their first resource symposium: Rise Up: A Journey to Trauma Recovery.
Over the years research has proven that exposure trauma i.e. to abuse, neglect, discrimination, violence, and other adverse experiences increases a person’s lifelong potential for serious health problems and engaging in health-risk behaviors.
As health care providers grow aware of trauma’s impact, they are realizing the value of trauma-informed approaches to care. Trauma-informed care acknowledges the need to understand a person's life experiences to deliver effective care and has the potential to improve the person’s engagement, treatment adherence, health outcomes, and caregivers' wellness.
The conference targets educators, social workers, mentors, and caregivers for children and families, alongside anyone dedicated to enhancing the welfare of vulnerable populations within their communities. The primary objective of this conference is to educate participants on trauma and trauma-informed care, equipping them with strategies for personal application as caregivers, as well as methods for implementing trauma-informed care in support of at-risk children and families.
The conference will feature 3 keynote speakers with several breakout sessions run by professionals in the field (CEUs will be offered).
