Trauma care in schools
CHDI helps schools to implement evidence-based practices to support students who have experienced trauma.
Helping schools support students who have experienced trauma
CHDI trains and supports school-based clinicians in implementing evidence-based treatments for children who have experienced trauma. We also offer a free online course on trauma screening specifically developed for school staff.
Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for Trauma in Schools (CBITS) is a school-based group intervention (for grades 5-12) that has been shown to reduce PTSD and depression symptoms and psychosocial dysfunction in children who have experienced trauma.
Bounce Back is an adaptation of the CBITS model for elementary school students (grades K-5).
The Trauma ScreenTIME Schools Course is a free, online course that trains school staff (teachers, administrators, support staff, etc.) how to effectively screen children for trauma exposure and connect them to services and supports that can help them recover. No clinical background required!
The Child Trauma Screen is a brief, free, empirically-derived screen for child traumatic stress that can be administered by trained clinical and non-clinical staff across child-serving systems.
