Trauma affects everyone, either directly or indirectly. The transgender population is no exception; they are more likely to experience trauma. They are often revictimized by well-meaning people who don’t know how to minimize or eliminate further harm. This 1-hour trauma-informed care course with a focus on the transgender population has the following objectives:
- Identify various responses to stress
- Recognize reactions to trauma triggers
- Understand how to develop and support resilience
- Identify strategies to interact with and help trauma survivors
