Neurobiology of Trauma: Supporting Survivors of Sexual Violence

In this experiential workshop, participants will learn how traumatic experiences impact the brain and nervous system, increase awareness of diverse physiological and emotional survival responses, and apply this knowledge to practicing first responder effectiveness. Information about sexual violence and survivorship is oriented within the larger, often stigmatized, sociopolitical context, emphasizing the importance of trauma-informed and survivor-centered crisis intervention.

This professional training will be facilitated for DePaul faculty and staff, but all DePaul community members are welcome to attend. This training will be facilitated by Lauren Milburn, LPC, R-DMT, a trauma therapist currently supporting survivors at Resilience, a nonprofit rape crisis center in Chicago, IL.
