Social Work Breaks Barriers: Using the  Arts for Trauma-Informed Care  of Families and Practitioners

Are you a practitioner who has experienced vicarious trauma or has a client who needs intervention beyond just talk therapy? Join Tuskegee University(TU) College of Arts and Sciences (CAS) Social Work Department (SOWK) for its 3rd annual virtual conference in honor of National Social Work Month to equip your toolbox this year with sessions for you and/or your clients using the arts (drama, music, art, and self-care) for trauma-informed care practices that break barriers to health and wellness.  

Preconference Event: Triggered Life (March 23rd @ 5:30 PM CST)

Triggered Life (formerly called Triggered) is a multi sensory, multimedia, post-traumatic story. How exactly does Sexual trauma cast a shadow over the wholeness of Black male selfhood? When the shared cultural values of Black and Brown communities demand that men suppress their vulnerabilities and meet with their psychology alone.

Triggered Life follows a day in the life of two such men, Ishmael and Keith. As these men relive their stories of abusive childhoods, they embark on a journey to define their own manhood and identity.

The “Triggered Life” experience is a Two Act 90-minute long tour de force  with Act two being a Trauma-Informed Grounding and processing  facilitated by The Triggered Project’s Lead Clinician Roxann Mascoll MS,MSW, LICSW
