Building a Trauma-Informed Nation banner



The United States is experiencing a public health crisis: an epidemic of trauma, violence, and toxic stress.
In response, efforts to create trauma-informed change are growing exponentially across the nation. Learn how communities are responding, and develop your own strategy to amplify change through four “Catalyst Sessions”:
  • COMMUNITIES
  • HEALTH CARE
  • THE JUSTICE SYSTEM
  • EDUCATION
Presentations will highlight effective collaborations, promising practices and programs at the state and local levels, as well as first-person experiences, including workforce systems and worker issues.Learn from successful programs, policies, and approaches being implemented across the country about how you can use these models, tools, and resources in your work, organization, or community. Following presentations, interactive sessions will facilitate participant discussions and strategic action planning in their local areas or agencies.
There are three ways you can participate:
  1. Via webcast through an “Amplifier Site” which is a gathering of others interested in this issue. (Click here to learn more about amplifier sites.)
  2. Individually via webcast at your computer. (Webcast participation is limited, so please register soon!)
  3. At the live event in Washington, DC.
