"Trauma-informed supervision assumes that experiences of trauma are prevalent in any workplace, but that disclosure is not required in order to apply the principles effectively," @careerwise_ca notes, referencing the 5 principles for #TraumaInformedCare from @UBittic. ⬇️ #UBSSW
This week, we're shining a spotlight on Trauma and Career Development in a new CareerWise article series. In the first blog, Jessica Lang explores 5 values of trauma-informed employee supervision that support flourishing individuals and organizations: buff.ly/3wZlypH

ITTIC stands with the citizens of both Palestine and Israel who have faced the ongoing trauma of war, genocide, Islamophobia, and Antisemitism. The impacts of these trauma are real & detrimental, as are the impacts faced by those outside the region.
As we approach the solemn anniversary of 5/14, we acknowledge how historical and racial trauma has been perpetuated in our Buffalo community. It is imperative to position ourselves and our organizations to proactively establish mechanisms for anti racism and anti- oppression —
— in order to be trauma-informed. If you are looking for ways to honor our East Side community, take a look at the events happening for Remembrance Weekend attached below:
