Five Benefits of Risking Connection© Training

This week I taught a Risking Connection© Basic three-day training for a Connecticut agency.  This agency provides various types of home-based services, school-based mental health clinics, out patient clinics, parent resource centers, and day care. It was a joy to teach such caring and thoughtful people. At the end of the training we did an exercise that involved people saying what they would keep from the training. Here are the top five things staff will keep: I learned tools that help me understand my clients’ behaviors in a new way I have new ideas for how to help my clients more effectively. I feel more connected to my agency and the individuals within it. I feel more valued by my agency.

As part of the process we are asking many professionals in the field to take a longer version of the survey, which will help us determine which questions work best. Would you like to join us?

When finished, this could be used to measure such things as the extent to which a school or agency is trauma-informed or the outcome of trauma-informed change interventions. We need your help. We need as many health and education professionals as possible to participate in a brief online survey. The online su...
