Abstract
Trauma-informed care has been considered for high schools since 2010. Both teachers and support staff realize that it is important to make sure to meet students' basic needs for any learning to occur. This information rings true for all college students, especially since the pandemic. The trauma-informed care model has been presented to faculty and staff at Central State University to engage them and allow them to learn new strategies that will help them work with a traumatized student population. This chapter addresses how the model of trauma-informed care training on the website starr.org will help students to complete their college courses more effectively. The small mid-western college in the United States pulls from a few models that were used at the lighthouse community school and the St Leo Burundi refugee resettlement programs. School challenges can be from, according to previous research, being bored with school programs, missing too many days, and being unable to catch up. The chapter will consider how these issues can be combated using the TIC model.
