Description
Summary:An exponentially increasing number of students experience traumatic events in their daily lives. To address this phenomenon, Beginning Within: Marking a New Journey Toward Equity in Trauma-Informed Education Practices delves into the profound impact of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). It brings together extensive research, thoughtful contemplations and innovative ideas that shed light on some of the lesser-explored aspects of trauma-informed practices in education. The chapters reflect the growth, grief and galvanizing challenges that have shaped and continue to shape our understanding of equality, safety and organizational change around trauma-informed educational practices. Hear from authors, experts and leaders in the education field who are leading the way in systemic change, ranging from the work in Missouri after the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, to university professors and classroom teachers seeking ways to use the past as guideposts toward a new journey of equity in trauma-informed practices, with each step paved by three research-supported tenets for creating a climate of trauma-informed practices, as offered by the editors of the book.
