START WITH A CONVERSATION
That’s why every partnership starts with listening — so we can co-create a path to meaningful, sustainable culture change.
We begin with a consultation to explore:
Your vision for change
Current challenges and strengths
Staff readiness and receptivity
Why trauma education is needed
The learnings will guide the development of a Training Plan — a blueprint for how the content will be customized, when the Workshops will occur, and scheduled coaching.
Every school is a unique ecosystem of relationships, institutional memory, and leadership style.
Trauma-informed isn’t something you do — it’s how you do everything.

"This was a great presentation. I'm excited to start using what I learned today."
"I think this was very helpful. I understand trauma a lot more."

Strategies to build and sustain momentum
“You would think that after 31 years of teaching that I have all the ideas I could need and perhaps, not open to new ones. The Trauma/ACEs PD was like replacing a dim bulb with a bright one. I was flooded with ideas on how I could still teach the standards but also work trauma informed care into my lessons. Thank you so much for making sure us old dogs still get to learn new tricks.””
“Jenn was incredibly responsive to the needs of our site. She collaborated with our admin and Trauma-Informed Leadership Team [TILT] to create training and workshops tailored to our specific needs and where we wanted to go with trauma-informed approaches. She provided many tools and resources that could be easily implemented in our classrooms and incorporated into daily routines.”
