Imagine You Trains Caldor Fire Second Responders

Due to the generous funding provided by El Dorado Federated Church, Marshall Foundation for Community Health, and the West Slope Foundation, Imagine You was invited to train over 27 participants from the Salvation Army, West Slope Foundation, and El Dorado County Library Hub Navigators. Having survived the Caldor fires only 18 months ago, and often battling the global traumas of the past few years, the Caldor Fire Long-term Recovery Group leadership realized their team has been burdened by the emotional toll of disaster recovery work. CLTRG reached out to Imagine You for help. In moving through the Imagine You training, CLTRG members were able to develop skills to mitigate secondary trauma and prevent burnout -very common in disaster recovery situations. 

Participant feedback:

“My team is helping  community members navigate their recovery. Our team’s personal resilience is stretched thin. They are benefiting from Imagine You  training and support to address the toll taken by the Caldor Fire, as well as build their capacity for future potential events.”

Imagine You appreciates the generous support for this training from the flowing funders:
