In partnership with the Georgia State University Child Welfare Training Collaborative, we are pleased to present Recognizing and Managing Secondary Traumatic Stress (STS).
This course is designed to educate various helping professionals on Secondary Traumatic Stress (STS) and its impact.
Participants will learn how to assess STS symptoms in themselves and others, explore factors that help to protect professionals from the negative effects of STS, and discover strategies to use these protective factors to manage STS.
