Update: Saturday, May 7th Foundations course will be an in-person training, located at COHatch in Ohio City, 2814 Detroit Ave, Cleveland, OH 44113

Ohio City Incorporated (OCI), Ohio City Improvement Corporation (OCIC), and Campus District Inc. (CDI) are excited to roll out a series of Community Trauma Response Trainings in the Ohio City and Campus District communities.

Through a partnership with MetroHealth’s Center for Health Resilience, OCI, OCIC, and CDI will be offering two free trainings designed to equip leaders, public service, and community members with knowledge, skills, and competencies to understand and respond to trauma. Participants will be equipped to effectively respond to trauma crises and connect individuals to appropriate healing and recovery specialists.

This introductory course is called “Foundations” and is designed to teach individuals to realize and recognize trauma. All trainings will be free to attend, and you must take a “Foundations” training in order to take the second course, “Trauma Informed Leadership Lab” which is designed to teach individuals to respond to trauma and resist re-harming those struggling.

We are privileged to be a part of MetroHealth’s Center for Health Resilience 2022 Pilot Partnership Program to address community trauma in Cleveland, Ohio and beyond. We believe these trainings will strengthen our neighborhoods’ capacity to respond to crisis and support one another.
