FLAGSTAFF — The Coconino Coalition for Children & Youth continued its support of Flagstaff Unified School District’s professional development efforts with a virtual presentation earlier this month.
“Through the support of CCC&Y we were able to provide the opportunity for all staff on our professional development day, August 10th to participate in viewing the webinar: “Understanding Adverse Child Experiences,” district officials reported. FUSD reports 1500 professionals were in attendance.
The hour-long webinar helps participants learn how the effects of childhood trauma play out both personally for individuals, along with having tremendous costs for society.
Rene RedDay, M.Ed, Family and Community Engagement Consultant, Building Community, details the impact trauma has on children and families and steps to gain emotional support, including a link to resources that can be found on the CCC&Y website HERE.
