Across Pennsylvania, organizations are feeling pressure to follow increasingly recognized and widely adopted trauma-informed care practices, like company-wide trainings, but don’t know where to start.
That’s where Resilient Lehigh Valley (RLV) comes in. RLV offers a diverse lineup of trauma-informed and resilience-focused trainings designed to support individuals, teams and organizations in building stronger, more compassionate communities.

All sessions are customizable to meet the organizational needs and are facilitated by experienced trainers who prioritize flexibility, relevance and impact. Whether you’re new to trauma-informed care or ready to deepen your approach, there’s a session designed to meet your needs.
Trauma has affected every person in some way, shape, or form. Having a better understanding of how trauma impacts you, as well as the people you interact with, helps you serve your clients and the community more effectively.

What Is “Trauma-Informed Training”?
Trainings are a powerful opportunity to strengthen your team, build internal capacity and create a more compassionate workplace. Tailored, accessible and rooted in community, RLV’s trainings are designed to meet organizations where they are and move them forward with clarity, care and purpose.
Skilled facilitators lead all RLV trainings, which can be tailored to your specific audience, whether you’re a nonprofit, school, healthcare provider or corporate team.
Signs Your Organization Might Need Trauma-Informed Training

- Interpersonal challenges or communication breakdowns
- Resistance to change
- “Check-the-box” mentality around mandates
“Organizations can either invest in compassion resilience from the outset by being intentional, mindful and creating a positive culture, or later, with increased call-offs, burnout, staff turnover and the associated costs of onboarding new employees,” said Missy Wise, Assistant Director, United Way Training Initiatives.
What Makes RLV Training Different
- Tailored sessions
- Flexible scheduling (most sessions are delivered in-person, with virtual options available)
- Relatable facilitators with community roots
- Built-in onboarding conversation to assess needs and goals
