Coventry Frontline Network training - Stress, Vicarious Trauma & Wellbeing

Wednesday, May 22, 2024

The Coventry Frontline Network is pleased to offer funded training delivered by Homeless Link, on Stress, Vicarious Trauma and Managing Wellbeing.

This course aims to develop emotional resilience amongst staff by exploring stress, compassion fatigue, burnout, and vicarious trauma, and develop strategies and techniques for managing self-care, emotional wellbeing and supporting others safely.

The online training will be run on Zoom as three modules of 1.5 hours:

  • 09:30-11:00 – Module 1
  • 12:00-13:30 – Module 2
