Nov 10, 2021 — Christina Wilson, RSW, explores how helpers can cultivate compassion satisfaction or joy for the art of helping, in the midst of personal, professional and systemic challenges
March 30, 2020 — Social workers and helping professionals know so much about burn-out and compassion fatigue. How can social workers and other helpers cultivate compassion satisfaction or joy for the art of helping, in the midst of so many challenges?
The purpose of the workshop is to build trauma awareness by reviewing common definitions, types, and impacts of trauma as well as exploring research. The workshop will explore the key principles of trauma informed care and how they can be applied to generalist social work settings. The sessions will also review how social workers are impacted by trauma and how to mitigate the effects of working in trauma exposed environments.
