4africa has contracted two professional counselors, solidifying plans to provide trauma and adversity counseling services for the students and staff at The Leadership Academy of South Sudan (LASS). This initiative started in January, ensuring continuous emotional and psychological support among our community.
In addition to the contracted counselors, five (5) of our staff members completed a 12-week online Trauma and Adversity Management training conducted by Clarke International University, Kampala.
The course comprised 12 modules covering trauma identification, management strategies, and referral protocols. This training enhances their ability to serve as frontline support, equipping them to assist students in overcoming traumatic experiences while ensuring professional escalation when needed.
We are so grateful for the counselors and the staff who completed the training. Our students come from backgrounds marked by trauma, loss, and adversity. We are intentional about supporting our students and staff both emotionally and spiritually so that they can develop into strong, healthy leaders who will go on to care for others.
