IAP BOOK SERIES

Contemporary Perspectives on Developing Trauma Informed Teachers

The use of Trauma-Informed Practices (TIP) in schools aims to create a safe, supportive climate, in which school personnel are encouraged to view and respond to students’ behaviors with an understanding of the potential impact of trauma and the strength of resilience. These practices are intended to be holistic and require a paradigm shift framing potential concerns about students with what has happened rather than what is wrong with you? When educators understand the impact of trauma on a child’s behavior, development, social-emotional skills, and readiness for learning, they can actively work to address these needs and more effectively promote student success.
