When terrible things happen, our peace has been stolen from us.
Let's build peace back into our lives and communities.
STAR-Lite is a single-day evidence-based, research and practice-supported peacebuilding training integrating neuropsychology, trauma healing and resilience, restorative justice, nonviolent conflict transformation, and broadly defined spirituality. The training enables people to become trauma-informed, resilience-oriented, and restorative justice-focused. STAR-Lite is for individuals who wish to learn the basic STAR concepts and models within a shorter-time frame than the 5 day STAR Training. STAR-Lite is designed for those wanting to understand psychological trauma toward building peace within their spheres of influence.
Rather than being from a traditional DSM-V medical model based understanding of psychological trauma, STAR and STAR-Lite are designed for those seeking to address psychological trauma from a broader bio-psycho-social-spiritual perspective.
The STAR-Lite Training objectives:
a. Learn various types of trauma and common responses to psychological trauma.
b. Learn the links between unhealed trauma and cycles of victimhood and violence.
c. Learn the basic STAR trauma healing and resilience models and associated practices.
d. Explore ways to apply trauma healing, resilience, and restorative justice practices toward building peace within your sphere of influence.
