Publisher Description: It is said that we need reminding as much as we need educating. This is particularly true in education and youth work with young people have been impacted by trauma in their lives. The behaviors seen on a daily basis require constant fidelity to the basic skills needed to address, rather than exacerbate, those behaviors. Whether you are a teacher, a juvenile probation officer, a street outreach worker, a volunteer, or one of a hundred other professions where your job is to spend your time with young people with the goal of effecting change, The 5 Skills will help you do so in a trauma-informed manner that fosters a young person's resilience. For those with experience, The 5 Skills provide an important daily reminder; and they are the first skills that should be mastered if you are new to the field. |
