ForwardUnderstanding the Impact on Professionals in Trauma-Exposed Workplaces-M1-About STS
This training is for Hearts with Hope Foundation
This training is part of NCTSN’s Secondary Traumatic Stress Module 1: Understanding the Impact on Professionals in Trauma-Exposed Workplaces. In this module we will review that Secondary Traumatic Stress (STS) is the emotional distress that results when an individual hears about the firsthand trauma experiences of another. For child-serving professionals who are exposed to details of traumatic events in the context of their work, STS is a common occupational hazard. If we know more about STS we become more STS-informed, the better prepared we are to mitigate and address STS as individuals and in our agencies. This training is Module 1 of 2 modules that are part of NCTSN’s Secondary Traumatic Stress: Understanding the Impact on Professionals in Trauma-Exposed Workplaces.
