In the June 2026 VTL, we will have an overview of the trauma-informed care curriculum, Trauma-informed Care: Hope, Strengths, Resilience, Growth, and Healing, for students, families, and educators. Particularly, we will attend to mental well-being by undoing the fight-or-flight or freeze responses to perceived threats.  Together, we thrive with compassion, seeking connection rather than isolation, at times of social and political discord. Participants will receive access to session resources and follow-up materials to support continued learning and reflection

Reflection Question: What practices help you remain hopeful, connected, and resilient during challenging times?
