Do you find present trauma language inadequate, approaches not satisfactory?
Do you have a new idea, project, shift in language or innovative strategy to share?

Why "Grounding Trauma"? Trauma is a large, complicated issue. We find that people often ignore it and focus on a particular issue and/or approach. Others pedestalize trauma, focusing on it exclusively with such energy other critical parts of the persons story are missed. Trauma needs to be grounded in the full experience of the individual and approached with balance and openness.
And, as trauma is as complicated as life itself and our understanding of it is continuing to grow, an annual conference is intended to bring you quality, leading edge education and an experience that will connect you to others with similar work, and passions.
