STAR-Lite is a single-day research and practice-supported peacebuilding training integrating neuropsychology, trauma healing and resilience, restorative justice, nonviolent conflict transformation, and broadly defined spirituality. The goal of the training is to become trauma-informed, resilience-oriented, and restorative justice-focused in our lives and communities. STAR-Lite is for individuals who wish to learn the basic STAR concepts and models within a shorter-time frame than the full STAR Training. While STAR-Lite is not a pre-requisite or replacement for the full STAR Training, it may serve as a refresher course for graduates of the full STAR Training. STAR-Lite is designed for those wanting to understand psychological trauma toward building peace within their spheres of influence. Rather than being limited to the traditional DSM-V medical model-based understanding of psychological trauma, STAR and STAR-Lite are designed for those seeking to address psychological trauma from a broader bio-psycho-social-cultural-spiritual perspective toward seeking truth, mercy, justice, and peace for healed just relationships in our families, organizations, and communities.

The STAR-Lite Training objectives:
a. Learn various types of trauma and common responses to psychological trauma.
b. Learn the links between unhealed trauma and cycles of victimhood and violence.
c. Learn the basic STAR trauma healing and resilience models and associated practices.
d. Explore ways to apply trauma healing, resilience, and restorative justice practices toward building peace within your sphere of influence.

In Minnesota:

  • 98% of STAR-Lite and STAR graduates rated the trainings as “Very Good” to “Excellent”
  • 100% increased their confidence to appropriately aid and assist when their clients, family, friends, and community members face stressful and traumatic circumstances.
  • 99.5% indicated they recommend the STAR-Lite and STAR Trainings to others.
