Napa Valley Wellness Conference

Coming Soon...

1. Inspire Innovative Thinking: Encourage participants to question traditional methods and explore creative, out-of-the-box strategies for supporting students.

2. Understand TIC: Provide a comprehensive overview of Trauma-Informed Care, including its principles, benefits, and the crucial role it plays in the classroom.

3. Advocate for TIC Certification: Discuss the importance of TIC certification for educators, alongside first aid and CPR, and why it should be a priority in California and beyond.

4. Practical Application: Share actionable strategies for integrating TIC practices into daily routines, creating a safer and more supportive environment for all students.

5. Call to Action: Motivate educators to take the next steps in advocating for and obtaining TIC certification, thereby becoming champions for their students' well-being.

Participants will learn about the importance of the peer-led model, hear from youth mental health advocates, and participate in a variety of wellness activities hosted by students. Participants will also learn about Bring Change to Mind (BC2M) and our resources for our mental health awareness clubs in high schools across the country, including Napa, CA.

Participants in this workshop will learn more about the California Peer Run Warm Line’s unique service, which empowers individuals to seek help on their own terms and is available 24/7 and statewide to callers of all ages.  

Individuals who contact the CA Warm Line seek support for a wide variety of issues, including anxiety, panic, depression, hearing voices, and other mental health experiences; feelings of isolation and loneliness, challenges in interpersonal relationships, substance use, and the impacts of current events including the pandemic.

Unlike many crisis services, the CA Warm Line is a completely voluntary and self-directed resource, allowing individuals to reach out on their own terms without fear of being forced into clinical interventions.

People choose the CA Warm Line because they feel understood and validated by trained counselors who have lived experience with mental health challenges, creating connection through empathy, mutuality, active listening, and reflecting that their stories and feelings matter.

Audience members will feel prepared to use our service for themselves, to share the resource with others, and integrate our values into how they understand mental health resources. We hope this presentation will be valuable in discussions with family, friends, classmates, coworkers, and their larger communities for years to come!
