In Lucas County, many of our public school children have experienced trauma. When a child experiences trauma, the impact is very often life-changing. Studies have found that children who experience trauma are more likely to suffer from asthma, depression, unemployment, substance abuse, and perform poorly on standardized tests. Often, behaviors that may look like defiance or disrespect may actually be survival/coping skills for students. This workshop, presented by a specialized trainer in trauma-informed care, will present helpful information on how volunteers can best serve students who have experienced trauma. Presented by Alicia Komives, LISW-S Toledo Public Schools Pre-School Social Worker in partnership with Toledo-Lucas County Public Library A light lunch will be served.
