Caring Without Carrying: Understanding Secondary Trauma

Educators pour their energy into supporting students who have experienced adversity, but without awareness and tools, that caring can come at a personal cost. This session helps participants recognize the signs of secondary traumatic stress, vicarious trauma, and compassion fatigue, and understand how these challenges can affect school culture, relationships, and instruction. Through reflection and discussion, educators will learn ways to protect their well-being, set healthy boundaries, and build supportive systems that allow them to care deeply without burning out.
