Given the high exposure of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACESs), Toxic Stress, and resulting Trauma, CESA 2 staff are trained to support our schools and school district staff in adopting philosophies and practices to become more Trauma Sensitive. By partnering with DPI and utilizing online learning modules, CESA 2 professionals are able to develop educators through knowledge building and coaching to individuals, leadership teams, and school systems. When adopting a Trauma Sensitive School approach, schools are acting to enhance students’ educational outcomes by reducing barriers related to trauma. CESA 2 consultants also assist schools to ensure this lens is applied through the existing school framework (i.e., Equitable MLSS) and is additive to other school efforts, such as SEL, behavior programs, etc.
