WHAT IS THIS TRAINING ABOUT?
Discover, Connect, Respond (DCR) is a practical, step-by-step approach to trauma-informed instruction that empowers educators to confidently address challenging behaviors like withdrawal, explosive emotions, and defiance.

● Immersive Experiences: Engage in the DCR routine firsthand to understand its practical application.
● Deeper Understanding: Explore the connection between trauma, attachment, and language development.
● Connection Strategies: Learn how to build meaningful relationships with difficult-to-reach students across language and cultural differences.
● Healing Interventions: Implement actionable techniques to support student resilience and amplify academic success.
