Educational Offerings for Health Care Professionals
Post-trauma training
The profound impact violent events have on children's mental health is undeniable, potentially causing lasting trauma. For months to come, it’s likely some of our community’s children will show signs and symptoms of post-traumatic stress reaction related to KC’s parade violence as well as everyday trauma. With your strong knowledge and community influence, we can work together to improve mental health outcomes now and in the future.
