In this episode of our TIPP training for Families we discuss how to visualize and set goals for  ourselves and our family through the SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Timely) goal setting system.

With a new understanding of ACEs, Historical Trauma, stress hormones, and cultural specific  parenting and self care, we discuss how to cultivate resilience individually and in families  through a Trauma Informed salutogenic model.

In this installment of our TIPP Training for Families we talk about stress hormones and role of  trauma has in their production, the effect of stress hormones on individuals and families, and  ways to understand and manage their effects and impact, including practical advice and  exercises on parenting, mindfulness, and culturally specific self care.

Building on the concepts discussed in the first episode, we talk about Trauma Informed,  culturally specific parenting. Examples, resources, exercises, and practical advice are given  for confronting trauma and approaching parenting with a trauma informed and culturally  relevant lens.

In this first episode of Peer Solutions TIPP Training for Families, Jen Rauhouse introduces Iya Affo, from Healing Historical Trauma, to define and discuss the roots and impact of Adverse  Childhood Experiences, Historical Trauma, and Epigenetics.
