This presentation describes how historical events caused intergenerational and transgenerational trauma in Indigenous populations. This trauma resulted in significant impacts on the physical and emotional well-being of Indigenous people. Additionally, the training provides an overview of a tool, Strengthening Resilience: Promoting Positive School Mental Health among Indigenous Youth, which can be used in professional and educational settings to help understand and address historical and intergenerational trauma to support physical and emotional well-being.
