Workshop 3: Effective Management of Vicarious Trauma
Working with children and families who have been hurt, and feeling committed or responsible to help increases a provider’s risk for vicarious trauma. Vicarious trauma is a normal and natural part of working with a trauma impacted population. However, if not effectively managed, it can be permanently transformative and negatively impact both quality of work and quality of life. Participants in this training will have the opportunity to increase their understanding of vicarious trauma and its impact, while also learning practical and effective vicarious trauma management tools.
