Incorporating Trauma Informed Practice into Higher Education
Posted by Philadealphia ACE Project on October 31, 2016
TOOLKIT FOR INCORPORATING TRAUMA INFORMED PRACTICE & ACES INTO PROFESSIONAL CURRICULA
The Higher Education and Workforce Development Workgroup of the PATF was established to work on this priority. The work group, co-chaired by Jeanne Felter, PhD, Program Director and Associate Professor Community and Trauma Counseling, at Philadelphia University and Suzanne O’Connor, Impact Manager at the United Way of Greater Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey, has developed the following resource which is designed to aid faculty and teachers in a variety of disciplines, specifically social work, medicine, law, education, and counseling, to develop or integrate critical content on adverse childhood experiences and trauma informed care into new or existing curricula of graduate education programs. This Toolkit was released on October 20, 2016 in conjunction with the event: “The Need for Trauma-Informed Curricula at Institutions of Higher Learning: A Call to Action”
