Navigating Polarization and Moral Injury in the Workplace

Overview
Professionals across education, healthcare, social services, and mental health face increasing challenges in providing trauma informed care (TIC) amid political restrictions, surveillance, and fear of backlash. These stressors contribute to burnout, moral injury, and compassion fatigue, making it harder to support those they serve while maintaining personal wellbeing. This training series will explore trauma across the lifespan, highlighting the differences between trauma-sensitive, trauma informed, and trauma-healing approaches. Participants will gain strategies to navigate difficult conversations, foster understanding in divisive environments, and integrate TIC principles into their work. Emphasis will be placed on self-healing, emotional regulation, and boundary-setting to help professionals sustain their work without sacrificing their mental health. This training is intended for field-based mental health and outreach workers in Los Angeles County.
