Креативна студія Party

“It’s Already in Them” was a workshop dedicated to supporting refugee and newcomer students through trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and relationship-centered approaches in education.

During the session, we talked about the emotional realities many refugee children carry into classrooms, the hidden strengths behind their stories, and practical strategies educators can use to help students feel safe, seen, and capable of success.

The workshop combined real-life experiences, professional insight, and community-based perspectives from working directly with Ukrainian newcomer families through the Ukrainian American Community Center.

At the heart of the presentation was one simple message: sometimes students do not need to be “fixed” — they need adults who help them rediscover the strength that is already within them. 💛
