One such educational program is titled "Strategies for Trauma Awareness and Resilience" (STAR), and it aims to help its students accomplish two main goals: (a) comprehend and de-stigmatize the potential effects of traumatic events; (b) cultivate life-giving responses that meet human needs rather than escalating violence.
Strategies for Trauma Awareness and Resilience will help people in the mental health, medical, legal, religious, educational, peacemaking, humanitarian, human rights, and development fields, as well as anyone else who works with people who are going through or has gone through trauma.

What Do We Learn In Trauma Awareness Training?

In the wake of a natural catastrophe, people's perceptions of physical safety and their connections to others in the community are altered in unique ways. Communities and families that have experienced a natural catastrophe or another traumatic event often exhibit unique trauma responses. How much a community can get back on its feet after something bad happens may depend on how leaders react.
Leaders in communities that have suffered trauma may benefit greatly from receiving training in trauma resiliency. Beginning in 2001, STAR has provided trauma awareness and resilience training based on scientific evidence. STAR uses ideas and methods from the fields of neuroscience, conflict transformation, human security, spirituality, and restorative justice to meet the needs of communities that have been hurt by trauma.
STAR is designed for mental health, medical, legal, religious, educational, peacebuilding, humanitarian, human rights, and development workers, and anyone else who comes into contact with communities living with present or historical trauma.
The Center for Restorative Justice and Peacebuilding established the STAR (Strategies for Trauma Awareness and Resilience) program to aid community leaders in recovering from 9/11. Over 7,000 community leaders have been prepared to deal with local and global crises in recent years. The Brookfield Institute was the first place to use STAR training for veterans, and now their program is used all over the country.
Exercises, role-playing, and open conversation are just some of the ways that the STAR training's five days put trauma resilience theory into practice. Participants get an understanding of the several methods for recovering from trauma and the tools available to them at each stage. When the workshop is over, participants will have the knowledge and skills they need to teach others in their own areas.
