Trauma-Informed Supervision: Using the Secondary Traumatic Stress Core Competencies

Quality Supervision is an important support that organizations can provide to staff members at risk of developing secondary traumatic stress and the field has not defined what comprises "quality supervision" in the context of secondary trauma support.

This workshop will review this tool and explore its use.

Objectives:
Participants will learn the Core Competencies for Trauma-Informed Supervision.
Participants will learn how to utilize the PROQoL with supervisees.
Participants will identify resources to implement the Core Competencies in Trauma-Informed Supervision.
