Dare to Transform Goes Virtual to Connect You With Colleagues and Information on Trauma-Informed Care
Each day, millions flock to Facebook and MySpace to connect with others. Business associates, college students, high school students, and casual acquaintances turn to such social networking sites, which have become virtual cafes where likeminded people can congregate and share ideas. Now, those concerned with trauma-informed care can find colleagues and information about their work in the latest room added to the web's virtual café: Dare to Transform on Ning.com
The social networking counterpart comes as a tool to publicize an upcoming trauma-informed care summit, Dare to Transform, held July 11-12. Hopefully, though, the site will become much more than a promotional vehicle and something that will last long beyond the meeting.
On Ning, participants can "listen in" to discussions or chime in on trauma and trauma-informed care through postings, blogs, and forums where they can upload images as well as documents. Here, in this virtual pubic forum for trauma-informed care, survivors can meet and converse with consumers while caregivers can swap information about best practices, and all visitors can stroll by a virtual kiosk where updates on upcoming events will be posted.
Anyone interested in trauma-informed care can register at the following website: http://daretotransform.ning.com/?xgi=gZNF1x2. It takes only a few seconds to place the world of trauma-informed care at your fingertips. It's a public health care revolution. For those interested in Dare to Transform, and trauma care in general, it's the thing to do - or the ning thing to do.
