The School of Education, Human Development and Consumer Sciences sponsored a forum on trauma informed care for students in the education department. This forum was coordinated by Dr. LeChrista M. Finn, Associate Professor and Health Specialist for Extension at Kentucky State University. Community partners from Fayette County Public Schools in Lexington were invited to share their experiences with providing trauma informed care in a school setting. Katie Washington and Quinton Murdock both work in the area of trauma and mental health for the district. Students were able to ask questions of the presenters to assist in their preparation as future educators. This collaboration will inform students in the college about future learning opportunities and potential work experiences.
