In the 2nd half of the application are some post-traumatic growth statements. The nature of this training means that some traumatic topics will come up, and these statements will help you identify where you might be in your recovery related to these topics. 
The trainers and moderators are all certified peer support specialists. Peer support will be available to anyone who may need it during this training.
​
If you feel the need to debrief your responses to the post-traumatic growth statements with a peer support specialist, please contact Diana at (dmccallum@wayouth.us)
