Together we can heal our communites

Your support will enable us to implement year-long SCBF programming and distribute our Trauma Toolkit to 12 schools in Michigan and Florida, impacting 4500 students and 250 educators.


The Issue

Educators often lack the trauma-informed training needed to address the root causes of behavioral issues like anger, defiance, and disengagement in the classroom. These behaviors are often symptoms of deeper psychological turmoil from trauma, which, left unaddressed, impedes learning and well-being.


The Solution

SCBF’s Trauma Toolkit empowers educators and students through a 3-pronged approach that includes trauma-informed training, access to ongoing resources, and expressive arts programming. Our goal is to foster emotional healing, safety, and engagement in schools.

  1. Trauma-Informed Training
    Our training equips educators to:
    • Decrease aggressive behaviors
    • Deepen their understanding of trauma’s impact
    • Provide solutions to engage and empower students
    • Ensure emotional and physical safety in the classroom
    • Help students rediscover their love of learning
  2. SCBF Learning Management System (LMS)
    Educators gain access to:
    • Trauma training video modules to build safe and effective classrooms
    • Downloadable resources, expressive arts prompts, weekly tips, and monthly webinars
    • Continuing Education Credits (CEC) compliance
  3. Butterfly Labyrinth Expressive Arts Programming
    This trauma-informed curriculum guides students through a 
    12-week journey using art, music, writing, mindfulness, and gardening to help them heal and grow. Designed to foster productivity and emotional well-being, it provides:
    • Art (painting, sculpting, crafting)
    • Creative writing (journaling, poetry, stories)
    • Gardening (planning, planting, and caring for projects)
    • Mindful movement (breath work, meditation)
    • Music exploration (drumming, listening)
