Clinical Faculty for Trauma-Informed Systems Training

Occupational Summary:

The Clinical Faculty will support the development and delivery of trauma-informed systems training at CCFH through a portfolio of projects and initiatives, including activities related to the development of psychoeducational content and resources, and delivery of training and consultation on trauma-informed practice and workforce wellness. The Clinical Faculty liaises with external partners and funders, as well as CCFH faculty, staff, and leadership. 

The Clinical Faculty will primarily support the Trauma-Informed Child Welfare Project-Helene Relief Project, which provides training and consultation on workforce wellness to the child welfare and mental health workforce in the 27 western counties impacted by Hurricane Helene, and the Trauma-Informed Foster Care in NC: Resource Parenting Curriculum Training Project, which disseminates training to improve foster parents’ response to trauma-related behaviors in the children they care for and their ability to advocate with service systems (e.g., child welfare, mental health providers). Occasional travel (10-20%) to western NC counties for in-person consultation is an expectation of the role.
