Brief Program Description

All of us experience bumps and bruises along life’s journey… injustice… unfairness… unkindness… meanness… When those you have loved, respected, and trusted have wounded you, then you understand that pain is not something you can easily, or quickly, overcome. Hurt People, Hurt People aims to educate youth service providers in a variety of settings to understand the link between unresolved childhood trauma and violent and aggressive behaviors in youth and adults. The session will provide research-based strategies and advanced, hands-on learning opportunities for individuals working with children who have experienced trauma.
