August 2024

E-Learning Modules on Trauma and Resilience are here!

SCAN created this free resource to raise awareness about trauma-related concepts and highlight the work that is being done in Virginia’s Trauma-Informed Community Networks to address trauma and build resilience around the state. Whatever your role may be in the community, we hope that these short videos will help to increase your knowledge about trauma & resilience and provide you with strategies that will be helpful in your personal and/or professional life.

The Resilience Week VA 2024 recap video highlights some of the many wonderful events held throughout Virginia this year! You can also take a look at a Resilience Week Sub-Awards Report to learn about how 8 TICNs engaged their communities in resilience-building and healing-centered activities.
