2023 Virtual International Convening
Moving Toward Equitable, Trauma-Sensitive, and Anti-Racist Practice:
Obstacles and Opportunities
Welcome to our international trauma and learning conference series. We are delighted to welcome three LIfTS instructors and educators in the field: Tia Lites, Ed.D Principal, Helen Y. Davis Leadership Academy, Dr. Jennifer Herring, Social Justice Curriculum & Data Analyst in Framingham Public Schools of Massachusetts, and Marco F. Odiaga, MAT, High School (G8-12) Partial Inclusion ELA Special Education Teacher at Neighborhood House Charter School.
The Lesley Institute for Trauma Sensitivity (LIfTS) instructors will share their experiences and approaches to fostering an anti-racist school culture and creating more inclusive and trauma-sensitive learning environments. Through the stories of educators in the field, we will explore the intersection of racism, equity, and trauma.
We are excited to expand our community's reach nationally and globally for future convenings. If you would like to participate in these conversations, please reach out to spedcenter@lesley.edu
