Violence and abuse are prevalent in our society. The risk for violent victimization is the highest for those under the age of 25. Students may experience many different types of victimization before they even reach our classrooms. The presenters will discuss the types and prevalence of victimization for youth and young adults, the impact of these traumatic experiences, best practices for trauma informed classrooms and interactions, and available resources. 

Presenters: Leslie Davila, adjunct instructor, Criminal Justice and director, Archdiocese of Philadelphia’s Office for Child and Youth Protection; and Judy Cruz-Ransom, diversity fellow and visiting lecturer, Criminal Justice
