Description

The Community Resiliency Model (CRM) trains community members to help themselves and others within their wider social network. The goal of the CRM is to create “trauma-informed” and “resiliency-focused” communities that share a common understanding of the impact of trauma and chronic stress on the nervous system. During this hands-on workshop, participants will learn to use strategies based on human biology and neuroscience, to create new neural pathways that strengthen the ability to cope when dealing with trauma, chronic stress, and/or bounce back faster from everyday normal stressors. This interactive two-day workshop focuses on learning the biological basis of the model, the importance of a shared language, and learning the skills to implement CRM into their personal and professional life. Participants will learn, through practice and experience, how to share what they've learned with others.
