For In our first hybrid gathering, we continued our work learning about Dr. Bruce Perry's Neurosequential Model, specifically looking at the Sequence of Engagement (Regulate-Relate-Reason). Curt Teff talked about the importance of acknowledging the stories we tell ourselves internally and how those stories affect our interactions with others. We watched Dr. Perry's video on the Sequence of Engagement and then watched a news story from Boston that showed an example of how interactions can become confrontations if we don't enter into them feeling regulated.

We heard how some of our Champions are using different resources to build skills with their staff and the people they serve:
Bruce Perry's Neurosequential Model training Compassion Resilience Toolkits We also toured the newly-reworked RTIC website and explored its many resources. Thanks and best wishes to our student preceptee Corianne for all her work getting this up and running! All materials needed for Champions to lead a Foundation training in your organization can now be found on the Foundation Facilitator Guide page on this website. Let us know on the Contact Us page if you need help using them or have feedback to make these materials easier to use.
At the last Community of Practice, we heard from many of our Champions about challenges they were facing with overwhelm on their teams, dealing with staff turnover, and maintain momentum as the pandemic continues. We dedicated our Champion Development session to our Champions and what they can do to build their own resilience and that of their teams. We talked about a resource from Dr. Bruce Perry from the Neurosequential Network and heard about how the La Crosse School District will be using these resources with their staff to address burnout.
Resource: Neurosequential Network Video Collection At our January 2022 Community of Practice, we talked in sector groups about what our Champions' organizations needed to implement RTIC principles in their work. We also heard about the challenges many of our sectors face, including staff turnover and the continuous need to onboard, the difficulty of seeing RTIC as integral--rather than in addition to--everyday work, and general overwhelm as we face the current stage of the pandemic and its impacts on the populations served.
There was interest in learning "microskills” to operationalize RTIC principles, develop language for keeping leaders engaged, and supporting staff. Overall, many of our Champions are continuously putting out fires, making momentum difficult to maintain. As a result, our next Champion Development session will focus on these needs. Jan 2022 CoP slides Resource: Western Technical College's Hope and Resilience Team Charter This Champion Development session reviewed the RTIC Framework and highlighted the important topic of Implementation Science. Attached to this post are the slides that provide an overview of the Framework and the method of Implementation Science.
