What is trauma-informed education?

Trauma-informed education is a holistic systems approach that acknowledges the impact of trauma and adversity on students‘ learning and behavior. It’s a mindset and set of practices that aim to create a safe, supportive, and inclusive learning environment for all students, recognizing that trauma can have significant effects on their academic performance, social and emotional well-being, and overall development. At CTIE, in addition to supporting students, we collaborate with teachers, administrators, and families to equip them with tools and understanding needed to build healthy relationships and foster a culture of care in the school community.
