Chefalo Consulting’s Group Norms
Confidentiality
Class is a safe, judgment-free space where we assume the best in one another. Confidentiality allows us to be honest and vulnerable.
Commit to
Non-Closure
Our conversations won't always have fairy-tale endings or neatly packaged answers. This work can be messy.
Our lived experiences, emotions, and beliefs are real, valid, and meant to be shared with others.
Seek Intentional Learning
We embrace mistakes since they are the hallmark of learning. Our goal during class is intentional growth and learning, never perfection.
In this class, we have hard conversations. We also learn how to ask for help and receive support from one another.
Embrace Paradox
Two things can be true at the same time. We resist black-and-white thinking that halts growth.

What does “trauma-informed” mean?“Trauma-informed” describes a practice, system, framework, person, organization, etc. which uses a trauma-informed approach. This approach is complex and multi-faceted. The core idea behind the trauma-informed approach is this: We all have trauma. Our trauma impacts us. Let’s address it and heal from it. People and organizations come to this work from different places hoping to achieve different goals. Here are some examples of initiatives that our clients take, which are included in our trauma-informed training programs: · mindfulness · employee wellness · client wellness · DEIB (diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging) · trauma training · organizational change management · professional development & workforce development · leadership development & key staff training

Who can benefit from trauma-informed change?We believe everyone can benefit from trauma-informed change. Trauma-informed work can help you develop personally and professionally, by strengthening your relationship with yourself and others, changing your perspectives, and healing your trauma. This work is especially beneficial to people who have a greater risk of chronic stress and vicarious trauma due to their jobs, such as social workers, healthcare workers, government workers, correctional officers, educators, paraeducators, first responders, etc. Trauma-informed change is especially beneficial when applied on an organizational level, which is why we also recommend this work to leaders, such as CEOs, CFOs, team leaders, managers, directors, executives, and officers.
-
Can I use a professional development grant for your training program?In many cases, yes! Many of our clients use grants allocated for workforce development, professional development, and trauma-informed organizational change. If you think that trauma-informed change could align with your organization’s initiatives, reach out for a free consultation.

We encourage organizations to seek federal, private, and state-sponsored funding to support this work.
-
Do you offer organizational change management services?Yes! Trauma-informed implementation is organizational change management. Implementation packages include a variety of services that support and oversee organizational change, including coaching & consulting, strategic planning, training programs, and more.
