UPLIFT: Foundations of Trauma-Informed Care   
This foundational module is intended to build awareness and support staff at any level in recognizing trauma and responding to individuals who have been exposed to adverse experiences and/or trauma. It is expected that participants will develop competency around defining and discussing trauma and common trauma symptoms, as well as implications that trauma and toxic stress can have on behaviors presented at home, in school, or in the community. The module incorporates neurodevelopmental information to increase awareness of the potential repercussions of trauma and toxic stress on brain development, and resultant implications for learning, academic achievement or engagement, and social success. Participants will develop a deeper understanding of a trauma-informed care framework (e.g., the 4 Rs and 6 principles of trauma-informed organizations), and how these intersect with existing school initiatives (e.g., school climate, PBIS, SEL, DEI, restorative practices, etc.). This module is designed to offer all school-based personnel a basic understanding of trauma and trauma-informed care practices at all tiers, from universal practices to individualized supports. Training activities may include individual reflection, case scenarios, polls, group discussion and Q & A.

UPLIFT: Fostering Physical and Psychological Safety   
In this module, participants will learn about the key components of physical and psychological safety to identify ways to strengthen these critical domains of well-being for students, staff and families. A review of the stress response, its relationship to feelings of safety, and its impact on our availability to new learning, problem-solving, and self-regulation will be provided. Participants will reflect on traditional practices targeting physical safety in schools (e.g., active supervision, predictability and routines, fire drills, lockdowns), and expand their understanding of a safe, trauma- informed environment. Participants will engage in discussions and activities that explore how routines, norms, consistency, and predictability can help build a sense of safety for students and staff alike. Participants will learn the key components of psychological safety, with a specific focus on the sequence of engagement, including co-regulation and relationship building. Actions and practices that school leaders and staff can use to increase physical and psychological safety will be identified. Utilizing a case study, participants will explore how to replace less effective negative consequences with natural consequences and/or restorative practices that more sustainably establish feelings of safety for students, staff and families.
