A public health education program to prepare people to assist someone who is experiencing emotional distress. This community-based training is for everyone!

Training to support adults and youth in exploring their relationship with emotions, increasing their understanding of the biology of emotion, and identifying the ways that they currently interact with their emotions and the emotions of others.

What happened to you? Listening to the answer to this question for ourselves and others helps shift the framework of how we view our experiences and their impact. Listening to Trauma explores what trauma is, the types of trauma we might experience, the effects of trauma, and paths to healing. Connection is prevention, and when our stories are believed, we can begin to heal. "Listening to Trauma" is a new curriculum created by Karen Iverson Riggers and Lynn McLaughlin that seeks to deepen understanding of trauma and how to support our own healing and the healing of others.

Karen Iverson Riggers & Lynn McLaughlin use their professional group training skills to design custom programs for groups. In addition, consultant services are provided to assist organizations in integrating new support systems that address groups' emotional and non-clinical mental health needs.
