Responding to Trauma – Equipping Session
Nearly 70% of adults have experienced trauma at some point in their lives. This can impact the mental health and wellbeing of individuals and communities. The goal of this session is to provide an understanding of what trauma is, how it impacts individuals, and how churches can provide trauma-informed congregational care. The session will be facilitated by Jon-Erik Misz, LCSW, MDiv, board member of Anabaptist Disabilities Network. Sunday, June 28, 2:30 pm
Come visit ADN and The Soil and the Seed Project in the exhibit hall!

National Youth Conference
YMCA of the Rockies, Estes Park, CO
July 18-23
https://www.brethren.org/nyc/
ADN will provide a sensory space called The Oasis at National Youth Conference this year. If youth or adults need a space to take a break from the excitement of NYC, they can spend a little time resting in a sensory-friendly environment and get their energy back. We will also provide a sensory space and aids in worship.
