What is this collaborative session about?
Join us for a special collaborative session held jointly by the School Crisis Recovery and Renewal project and CARRE (two National Child Traumatic Stress Network Category II sites) to create space for service providers (based in schools or community) who want to engage in the practice of attuning and attending to our emotional landscape as we witness institutionally sanctioned and unprecedented death and violence.

- Imagine new ways of incorporating recovery and renewal activities into therapeutic intervention, classrooms and curriculum, peer and student interactions, meeting structures and personal lives.
- Identify individual and collective protective factors, community assets and stressors, significant loss, trauma and opportunities for growth.
- Build community capacity and peer support to respond to mental health needs in forcibly displaced communities.
Who should attend?
