The data is clear. More than 2 out of 3 students have had to deal with at least one Adverse Childhood Experience (ACE) – such as the death of a parent, living with addiction or suffering abuse. Research shows that students who have endured two or more ACEs are far more likely to experience academic and behavioral issues.

In this 90-minute WebRemix™, Kim Johancen – a licensed professional counselor – helps educators identify and understand students who are struggling with traumatic events that have occurred in their young lives. She also provides practical tools to help teachers, counselors, social workers, student services personnel and administrators address the needs of these students more effectively based on presenting symptoms. The ACEs-Informed Schools  webinar examines the three primary trauma response states and shares numerous skills and strategies educators can use with students deepening on their specific trauma responses. Kim describes specific as examples in order to explore specific approaches to use with students based on the five primary stages of trauma recovery.
