Since 2019, support from the Motorola Solutions Foundation has enabled us to expand beyond Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force Teams. We now offer a mental health and wellness program designed for professionals regularly exposed to traumatic events, materials, or the trauma of others.

Who might benefit from this program? Law enforcement, fire and rescue personnel, social service providers, those working in victim services, legal & judicial and those in other “helping” professions.

The main Helping Advocates Rebound from Trauma training is offered as a one-day in-person course in vicarious trauma mitigation, for a total of 6 training hours. After attending the course, participants will receive a certificate of completion. The program outline includes:

• What is vicarious trauma?
• Definitions of trauma responses
• Identifying signs and symptoms of trauma
• Tools and techniques for building resilience
• Application of coping skills
• Incorporation of team and family support

We can offer this program at in-person conferences and events and also provide follow-up support through webinars.
