What does it mean to be a trauma-informed church? The term 'trauma' is one commonly used today, often meaning very different things. This Study Day, led by Dr Karen O'Donnell, Academic Dean at Westcott House, is an opportunity to learn more about what trauma is (and isn't!), how it impacts a person, and how trauma makes itself known. We explore the developing work of trauma theology and biblical studies to understand how people are thinking theologically and spiritually about trauma. With an emphasis on practicality, we examine together the principles of trauma-informed work and imagine what a trauma-informed church might be like.

The creation of this new resource for the Diocese has been specially commissioned. It is for people in parishes preparing for confirmation. Each session starts with one of the Bishop's questions at a Confirmation service and combines prayer, video clips, Bible study and questions for reflection. The six sessions are suitable for group or solo learning, with specific instructions for each.
