This spring, I offered a workshop series for the incredible folks of the @fireadaptednet and this blog post provides a lil' taste to some of the content we covered together. Give it a read 📖.
Today's #FireNetworks blog: @mapbosse shares on the importance of trauma-informed care in the fire world, and offers steps anyone can take to become more trauma-informed.
