Background

About Sahara Wiley

Trauma-informed practice is my passion. Through trauma-informed practice, I can implement my knowledge to support and empower students in school settings. My previous experience of having social workers as a child has led me to want to enhance the system of social work and bring light to children in the world. I have ample experience working with children from child development classes in high school. Extending myself in daycare setting, and case management to advance the health of infants. My experience and passion have led me into the school system to support students and emphasis on the POCS community. While I have obtained experience, I am trained in CBITS (Cognitive Behavioral Interventions for Trauma in Schools). I can support students through immediate crisis. Extending myself in the school system to support students through advocacy is one of the great rewards and implementing safe spaces for students through SEL (Social-Emotional Learning), coping strategies, and group support.
