This 2 hour online training teaches the basic concepts, models, and strategies of the 5-day Strategies for Trauma Awareness and Resilience – STAR Training. STAR is a research and practice-supported peacebuilding training integrating neuropsychology, trauma healing and resilience, restorative justice, nonviolent conflict transformation, and broadly defined spirituality. The training introduces people to being trauma-informed, resilience-oriented, and restorative justice-focused for the benefit of themselves and others. It is for individuals who wish to learn basic STAR concepts and models within a shorter-time frame than the single day STAR-Lite Training and the 5-day STAR Training. Introduction to STAR is not a pre-requisite or replacement for the STAR or STAR-Lite Trainings. It is designed for those wanting to understand and heal trauma toward building peace within their spheres of influence. This training is for laypeople, paraprofessionals, and licensed professionals.

For licensed Minnesota social workers, teachers, and nurses who want 2 hrs of continuing education (CE) for Introduction to STAR, choose the registration option that includes the $30 tuition + $15 CE fee. If you’re a social worker, nurse, or teacher licensed in another state, please contact your state’s professional board to determine if they have a reciprocal CE relationship with Minnesota.

The Introduction to STAR online training objectives:
a. Learn the full intersectional spectrum of individual and collective psychological trauma.
b. Learn the links between unhealed trauma and cycles of victimhood and violence.
c. Learn STAR’s trauma healing and resilience models and associated practices.
d. Explore self-care for resilience strategies to build peace into your life, family, and community.

After you receive your training registration confirmation from Eventbrite, we’ll send you PDF handouts in preparation for this online training as well as instructions to access the Zoom video conferencing online training link.

Also, we’ll invite you to send us a visual Image of Hope via email attachment that you are willing to let us show to the online training group as a part of a community peacebuilding collage. Sending this image to us is completely optional.

Maximum number of trainees: 30
