Children, Families and Safeguarding
Children who have experienced trauma or violence carry it into every classroom, service and appointment. Educators and child facing workers are often the first adults in a position to notice, and the first who can make a difference.
This training supports teams working with children and families to create safe, ethical and trauma-informed environments.
