Mental Health Technology Transfer Center Network - Native Spirituality: Creating Space for Trauma Recovery and Wellness
2021-09-30 11:00 - 12:00 (America/Chicago) | Virtual Event
Creating Time and Space for Trauma Recovery and Wellness

Thursday, August 26 from 12:00 to 1:00 ET
Thursday, September 30 from 12:00 to 1:00 ET
Thursday, October 28 from 12:00 to 1:00 ET

The purpose of the sessions is to support tribal health care providers, and non-tribal health care providers who serve Tribal people, in today’s critical environment. Trauma, stress, fear, and anxiety touches health care workers, just as it is felt by the patient or person you are helping. Longer hours and extra shifts, and the deep concern for family and patients, can weigh heavy on us as we continue to do our jobs. The goal is to continue the supportive environment we enjoyed last month where we remembered our strengths and learned new ways to renew during the most stressful of times, enriched by a series of Native music videos.
