Trauma Informed Response in the Church

Trauma, grief, and loss exist in all communities, including churches. Church leaders can provide support & help the hurting in their communities by learning more about trauma, its symptoms & effects. The Trauma Informed Response course explores how to respond in an appropriate, biblical, compassionate manner, creating safe places for people to begin the process of healing – a journey that takes time. Wherever there is trauma, healing is possible. God feels our pain with us, and wants to help us heal.

 

Trauma Informed Response in the Church is available by request. Please contact us if interested!
