Trauma-Informed Organization Update

All CHS employees will receive training on doing our part in creating and maintaining a Trauma-Informed Organization (TIO). Training will begin at the end of June and conclude by September. Staff can access information on TIO in GOOD WORKS under HELP & RESOURCES. Thank you for supporting this important initiative that will make the CHS team even Better Together! And thanks to the employee-led TIO team, which has been working throughout the past year to bring this important concept to the forefront of our organization.
