Throughout the United States and around the world as many as 1 out of 4 children in our classrooms has experienced enough adversity that it directly impacts their ability to learn.  

Early childhood trauma crosses cultural and socio-economic lines and affects nearly every aspect of students’ lives.  Yet not many school systems or communities are directly addressing the impact of trauma through programs or policies.  This needs to change.  Those who are on the forefront of this critical movement are the driving forces behind Creating Trauma-Sensitive Schools (CTSS).   

For the last four years, we have held the largest gathering of trauma informed educators globally.  In 2022, we will have both an In-Person Conference and Virtual Conference Experience and anticipate thousands of attendees, and further expanding our reach.  Teachers need our support now more than ever.  And in return we need yours to ensure we provide the greatest level of impact to children.     

Your collaborative support helps us deliver this conference experience and assists Attachment & Trauma Network’s (ATN) ongoing work of empowering educators and parents throughout the world.  We welcome you to be a part of our movement and our 5th Annual Creating Trauma Sensitive Schools Conference (CTSS).
