Vicarious Trauma Workshop 9/30/22 9AM-12:30PM Virtual, $20/person; Register by 9/26/22

Please consider attending for yourself and/or sharing with your teams. In addition to our own personal experiences, many of us are exposed to violence and trauma directly or indirectly in the work we do and it's so important to remain aware of how vicarious trauma presents and its impacts on the individual, organization and community. Stephanie Sacks has served as Rebuilding Hope's Clinical Director for over $25 years and facilitates a very effective space for these discussions.

If you work with a high caseload of traumatized individuals, this workshop is for you. We know

that trauma impacts the clients we serve, but how does witnessing, helping with or hearing

about trauma day after day affect you personally and professionally? What is the impact on

the organizations we work in? Come and find out what the “occupational hazards” are and

find out what you can do to minimize the risk to yourself and your organization.

This workshop is suitable for social workers, mental health therapists, residential counselors,

case managers, medical personnel, law enforcement, fire fighters, CPS workers, and foster

parents; anyone who has had repeated exposure to trauma through work or volunteer

activities. Administrative personnel at agencies who focus on trauma are also welcome.
