Trauma impacts the lives of many students from all backgrounds and all grade levels. Research shows that two-thirds of children reported at least one traumatic event by the age of 16.\u00a0<br \/><br \/>Students impacted by trauma may display symptoms, including an inability to focus, poor social skills, depression, anxiety, and withdrawal. Effective support for someone who has experienced trauma means approaching children from the lens of, \u201cWhat happened to you?\u201d rather than, \u201cWhat is wrong with you?\u201d\u00a0 This perspective helps to foster understanding and trust between the child and the adult.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/c5503b908aa9fccc62e13516d\/_compresseds\/4257fb9e-d6ea-45f6-8b0d-c47ff0d96e4f.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\r\n<figcaption><em><strong>Pictured left to right are: Mace\u2019s Lane Assistant Principal, Mrs. Stephanie Brohawn; Katie Pittsinger, LCSW-C, Director of Education and Trauma-Informed Services at For All Seasons, Mr. Jymil Thompson, Principal of Mace\u2019s Lane Middle School; and Lesa Lee, LCSW-C, For All Seasons Clinical Director.<\/strong><\/em><\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Another key component of being a trauma-informed is ensuring support for school staff by increasing an understanding of self-care, reflective supervision for teachers, and developing support teachers need throughout their school day.\u00a0 According to Director of Education and Trauma-Informed Services, Katie Pittsinger, \u201cWe need to keep in mind that many children impacted by trauma require help learning how to build relationships and address lagging skills associated with problem-solving and affect regulation. These skills will help them to counteract toxic stress and build resilience.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Administrators and teachers from Queen Anne\u2019s, Dorchester, and Talbot have participated in Trauma-Informed School training. In the coming months, the For All Seasons clinical team looks forward to providing training to additional schools across the Mid Shore.
