Beyond Trauma-Informed: The AWE and 26+ Strategies for Hard-to-Reach Students

Grounded in a powerful real-life story of trauma and resilience, this workshop moves beyond the basics of being trauma-informed to explore how our Actions, Words, and Expressions (AWE) directly shape every student interaction. Attendees will walk away with the Social Emotional Alphabet—a suite of 26+ practical, actionable strategies designed for hard-to-reach students who may not live in the world we wish for them. Discover how shifting your perspective transforms classroom management through engagement, relationship-building, and authentic connection, empowering you to ensure your AWE lifts students up rather than holding them back.
