The Resilience Champion

Assessing your Setting – Activity & Discussion

Each week you will have access to a downloadable version of the activity & discussion post (may also include a worksheet)

Activity: Work through the following questions either individually or as part of your Resilience Champion team. (You may use the worksheet as a tool to support the activity.) Consider how you might utilize your team to collect feedback on the needs and the strengths of your setting. Getting a variety of perspectives is important so consider what format is best (anonymous survey, interviews, etc) to get honest input. Be careful to avoid implementing this process in a vacuum. Get outside of your comfort zone!

• Choose an assessment tool: Use the additional resources and/or the worksheet below to develop an assessment tool (formal or informal) that works best for your setting

• Assess your setting: Use your tool to assess your setting across different areas you defined.

Discussion post:  Post your answer to these questions:

• What are you already doing in your setting to support a trauma-informed approach?
• What are your biggest opportunities for improvement?
