Support for Teachers Affected by Trauma (STAT) helps educators understand secondary traumatic stress (STS) and learn ways to mitigate its effects.
The Support for Teachers Affected by Trauma (STAT) online course is designed to help educators understand secondary traumatic stress (STS) and provide ways to mitigate its effects through the use of self-care techniques and a variety of helpful resources. This user-friendly course allows participants to engage in a range of STS learning interactives, explore scenarios that highlight the impact of STS, listen to teachers describe their experiences with STS and self-care, and complete self-assessment scales that can measure and track STS levels over time. STAT brings much-needed attention to secondary trauma to the field of preK–12 education.
