| February 3 | Madison | Community Resiliency Model (CRM): The Community Resiliency Model trains community members to not only help themselves but to help others within their wider social network. The primary focus of CRM is to educate individuals about the biology and neurophysiology of trauma, stress, and resilience as well as teach simple biologically based wellness skills, which can help re-set and stabilize the nervous system. Through CRM, individuals learn to read sensations connected to their well-being, which TRI calls the “Resilient Zone”. CRM’s goal is to help create “trauma-informed” and “resiliency-informed and -focused” communities that share a common understanding of the impact of trauma and chronic stress on the nervous system and how resiliency can be restored or increased using this skills-based approach.

| February 29 | Online | Pack Resilience in the Suitcase: Promoting Resilience in Young Children: Presented by Rachel Wagner, MSW.New Class Topic in 2024! Young children take their early experiences with them for the rest of life’s journey. We can help pack children’s suitcases with all the essential skills and tools they will need. We can put protective factors in the suitcase by focusing on resilience. Resilience is the ability to bounce back from change and misfortune. Research tells us that resilience is increased when children have: (1) Healthy relationships; (2) Self-regulation; and (3) Initiative— three key protective factors. When children have healthy initiative, self-regulation and attachments, they are more likely to be successful in school and life. A child with protective factors will also engage in fewer challenging behaviors. Participants will leave this session empowered with the knowledge and skills to set children up for success in school and life. Participants will gain a better understanding of resilience and how to ensure children have protective factors packed in their suitcase. Register Today! | 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. | $0 |
