ABOUT
Arkansas children are exposed to substantially high levels of trauma.
This places them at an increased risk for mental and behavioral problems.
The Arkansas Trauma Resource Initiative for Schools (T R I S) was created to help school personnel better recognize and respond to the impact of trauma on students.
T R I S provides training, resources, and other support to all school personnel across the state. The initiative is a collaboration between UAMS, the Arkansas Department of Education (A D E) and other key stakeholders.
It is funded by a generous behavioral health grant from the Blue and You Foundation.
