SUMMARY:Managing Stress and Trauma with the Community Resiliency Model (CRM) Part 1
DESCRIPTION:This is part one of a two part series. The second part will take place on August 18 \nThe Community Resiliency Model (CRM) provides a resiliency-informed approach to\ntrauma and toxic stress by teaching simple skills that are accessible to all. It teaches us that people are\nresilient\, and skills of well-being can be cultivated to reduce suffering. CRM is both trauma-informed and\nresiliency-informed care; it invites us to get to know our nervous systems and our internal sensations.\nCRM is a biological model\, focused on our physical sensations. Our brains have an enormous ability to\ngrow and adapt. The concepts of neuroplasticity and neurogenesis show us that what we pay attention\nto grows! \nOutcomes: Participants will learn about toxic stress and trauma\, and the body’s natural responses to\nthese stressors. We will learn about Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and Positive Childhood\nExperiences (PCEs)\, and what they teach us about the human capacity for resiliency. This session will\nintroduce three of the six CRM skills: tracking\, resourcing\, and help now. \nPresenter Bio: Maureen Burns (she/her/ella) is the Director of Community Health and Northside\nCommunity Health Worker /Promotora de Salud with The HAP Foundation. The HAP Foundation is a\nnonprofit leader with a refined focus to elevate access to and increase understanding of serious illness\nand hospice and palliative care through community and clinical education\, workforce development\,\nresearch\, and advocacy. Maureen works in and around Chicago\, providing free community education\nand linking patients and loved ones to resources within their community. She has over 20 years of\nexperience working in health care\, a Bachelor of Arts degree in community health\, culture\, and aging\,\nand a Master’s degree in Public Health. In 2022\, Maureen became a certified CRM teacher through the\nTrauma Resource Institute (TRI). \n

CRM is about empowerment; it teaches that regardless of our external stressors\, we can\ndevelop skills that help us widen our resiliency zone\, which is the zone where we can show up as our\nbest selves. \nOutcomes: There are common human reactions to stressful/traumatic events that affect the mind\, body\, and spirit. CRM helps individuals learn to read their nervous system to return to their zone of well-being\, called the Resilient Zone\, through the use of simple wellness skills. Participants will learn about how trauma impacts implicit and explicit memory. We will introduce the final three skills: grounding\, gesturing\, and shift & stay. \nPresenter Bio: Maureen Burns (she/her/ella) is a Community Health Worker /Promotora de Salud with\nThe HAP Foundation.
