Reclaiming Faith, Hope, & Love: Finding Everland After Religious Trauma

This workshop embodies the “Embrace & Evolve” theme by equipping participants to embrace their current understanding of religious trauma while evolving their approaches through salutogenic, health-focused frameworks. Designed for mental health professionals, social workers, counselors, faith leaders, family program providers, childcare professionals, and parents navigating religious trauma within their families or practice settings, this session shifts focus from pathology to the origins of health, empowering participants to facilitate healing through evidence-based resilience-building strategies. Professionals will discover how to embrace the complexity of religious trauma in their client populations while evolving their interventions through salutogenesis and trauma-informed care principles. The workshop creates a safe, community-based learning environment where participants identify healing journey stages, recognize transformative turning points, and develop practical tools for building new narratives beyond religious trauma—whether working with clients, supporting family members, or navigating personal experiences. Attendees will gain a comprehensive understanding of religious trauma recovery processes, receive tangible resource-mapping techniques applicable across practice settings, and connect with colleagues facing similar professional challenges while discovering pathways from deconstruction to sustainable, authentic living. Participants will leave with personalized resource maps adaptable to diverse contexts, resilience practices for both professional and personal application, and expanded professional networks that facilitate ongoing learning and transformation in their work with individuals and families affected by religious trauma.

I Was Loved: Nurturing Resilience Through Positive Parenting

This workshop centers on the day’s theme “This One Moment,” emphasizing mindful presence and intentional connection in our caregiving relationships. Designed for parents, professional caregivers, and family service providers, this session delivers evidence-based strategies to reduce adverse childhood experiences while building resilience through the transformative power of being fully present with children. The "I Was Loved" framework equips participants—whether biological parents, foster caregivers, social workers, or childcare professionals—with practical tools to communicate love and build secure attachments in the present moments that matter most. Professional caregivers will discover how to apply these principles within their specific practice settings, recognizing that healing and resilience emerge not from grand gestures but from the accumulation of attentive, loving moments. Attendees will gain a comprehensive understanding of the connection between feeling genuinely loved and childhood resilience, along with methods for demonstrating love effectively in both routine interactions and challenging caregiving moments. Participants will leave with personalized action plans that honor their unique caregiving contexts—whether parenting their own children or serving children professionally—receiving concrete strategies to create environments where children experience the consistent, present love necessary to become resilient adults.
