Event description

This training session is suitable for frontline staff, managers, advocates, and any other people working with housing justice and/or social change issues.

Training includes facilitator led content, reflective training exercises and learner workbook, and Q&A with a person with lived experience of homelessness and housing precarity.

Overview:

Almost everyone who experiences homelessness or housing precarity has experienced additional trauma. People working in homelessness, social housing, and housing justice can impact, and be impacted by, these trauma experiences.

Trauma Informed Practices for Social Change will support learners to develop resources for working reflectively and in consideration of their own trauma, the trauma of others, and the systemic contributors to trauma. This course emphasises practices that can contribute to personal wellbeing, social care, and social change.
