Trauma and Resilience Training
ChildSavers offers a multitude of trauma training opportunities for educational and healthcare organizations, healthcare professionals, and community leaders.
Our workshops and consultation services help us share a framework of knowledge with adults about trauma-informed care. We strive to build institutional capacity and individual and community resilience across the Mid-Atlantic region. Looking through a trauma-informed lens allows us to have effective interventions to help individuals reach their full potential.

The Impact of Trauma and Resilience Training
Since the start of our training efforts in trauma-informed care in 2015, over 25,000 people have participated in our workshops and training events, and we have trained over 450 trainers in the curriculum.
We offer workshops on the basics of trauma-informed care and resiliency-based practices (our Surviving and Thriving: Trauma and Resilience Basics) and a train-the-trainer curriculum to empower individuals and organizations to educate others. We also offer workshops and trainings specific to topics like self-care, regulation, and behavior management for educators, clinicians, social services, healthcare workers, and others. Please reach out if you would like more information. All of our currently scheduled public trainings can be reached via the link below.
Why do we need Trauma-Informed Training?
One out of four children in the United States will experience some sort of trauma by the age of four. Trauma creates changes to our biology, our genetics and epigenetics, our behavior, and ultimately a myriad of lifetime health outcomes. Looking through a trauma-informed lens allows us to have effective interventions to help individuals reach their full potential.
