Trauma-informed care is a teaching strategy to help educators recognize the presence of trauma symptoms and acknowledge the impact trauma may play in a student's development and learning process. Students who have experienced trauma can face learning delays, take longer to complete tasks or be more easily distracted. Armed with trauma-informed teaching principles, you can better understand how trauma can impact learning and behavior. With trauma-informed teaching, you will better be able to support students, build positive relationships with students and their families and develop resilience strategies with your students to maximize their potential for learning.
