IEA - Inspire, Encourage, Achieve and
Spindletop Center in collaboration with
Lamar University, the Beaumont Police
Department and Jefferson County
Juvenile Probation helped build and
promote more trauma-informed
workplaces and practices with
vulnerable youth in Southeast Texas!
The organizations that attended the
training were provided with practical
tools needed to become better prepared
to care for the hearts and histories of
youth whose lives have been impacted
by difficult and disappointing life
experiences.
Over 100 professionals attended the
training, including officers from
Beaumont Police Department,
Jefferson County Juvenile Probation
staff, and representatives from
Jefferson County District Attorney's
Office.
The training provided research- informed strategies that have been field-tested and proven effective for
youth involved in the child welfare and/or juvenile justice system as well as hose who are at-risk for exposure to
trauma and natural disasters.
With more trauma-informed
workplaces in Southeast Texas, we an build/strengthen relationships that counter fear- based behaviors
and stress responses among some of the most vulnerable youth in our community.
