Thriving Minds has partnered with the Center on Child Wellbeing & Trauma to offer a year-long coaching cohort for districts to support the use of trauma-responsive practices for school mental health. As a part of the Trauma-Responsive Coaching Cohort, districts will be paired with experienced coaches who will work alongside teams to develop a trauma-responsive action plan that includes specific benchmarks and milestones for implementation. Districts will receive guidance from coaches on the use of the Trauma Responsive Schools Implementation Assessment (TRS-IA), School Health Assessment and Performance Evaluation System (SHAPE) system, and universal screening. Coaches will meet regularly with staff during the year to offer support, monitor progress, and provide tailored recommendations as teams carry out action plans. This Coaching Cohort is best suited for districts or schools with strong leadership buy-in for this work and a dedicated team able to apply what they learn.
Applications are due Wednesday, November 15th at 5 pm. Apply here: https://bit.ly/49rq6nw

Placing a high priority on supportive and mentoring relationships and helping children build healthy connections with peers is a constant endeavor for child-serving organizations and professionals, but winter and the effects of seasonal affective disorder (SAD) in some children and teens can make this priority even more important. The “winter blues” can impact children and adolescents who have or are experiencing trauma, so introducing engaging and meaningful activities can bring huge benefits – and not only for them. Child-serving professionals can also banish the winter blues through ideas offered in the latest blog from The Center on Child Wellbeing and Trauma: http://bit.ly/3kCuZWm

While seasonal affective disorder (SAD) can affect all children, studies have found it disproportionately impacts adolescent girls. This time of year, children and teens who have or are experiencing trauma may find it harder to focus and function during the day, as SAD’s “winter blues” can intensify symptoms of depression and anxiety. In our latest blog, The Center on Child Wellbeing & Trauma offers guidance to child-serving organizations and professionals about fostering positive experiences that infuse fun, release stress, spread compassion and build resilience during the darker winter months: http://bit.ly/3kCuZWm

During the shorter, drearier days of winter, seasonal affective disorder – SAD, or the “winter blues” – can affect children and teens who have or are experiencing trauma. They may feel heightened symptoms of depression and anxiety, impacts on sleep habits, and decreased energy levels and focus. Child-serving organizations and professionals can ensure that their trauma-informed and responsive approach to supporting children will stand up to winter’s tests by offering activities that strengthen relationships and engagement, described in the latest blog from The Center on Child Wellbeing & Trauma: http://bit.ly/3kCuZWm
