Browsing the site, what immediately stood out to me was that WE Teachers is a free program for educators nationwide: a kind of “teacher-toolkit” that offers professional development on trauma-informed practices. They offer learning modules, courses, workshops, resources, lesson plans, and a video library.
As I think about how I want to set up my future classroom, I realize that the WE Teachers resources are a perfect fit. I want my students to learn compassion, empathy, and social responsibility — not just academic content. I also know that many students carry trauma, stress, or social difficulties outside school. The trauma-informed training could equip me to better support their emotional and mental needs, and create a safe, inclusive environment.
Exploring WE Teachers reminded me that teaching is more than giving lessons — it’s about helping students grow into kind, thoughtful, and caring people. The resources there provide a way to bring those values into everyday classroom life, while also offering support for teachers.
