172172 19 (b) In this subsection (b):
173173 20 "Trauma" is defined according to an event, an experience,
174174 21 and effects. Individual trauma results from an event, series
175175 22 of events, or set of circumstances that is experienced by an
176176 23 individual as physically or emotionally harmful or life
177177 24 threatening and that has lasting adverse effects on the
178178 25 individual's functioning and mental, physical, social, or
179179 26 emotional well-being. Collective trauma is a psychological

190190 1 reaction to a traumatic event shared by any group of people.
191191 2 This may include, but is not limited to, community violence,
192192 3 experiencing racism and discrimination, and the lack of the
193193 4 essential supports for well-being, such as educational or
194194 5 economic opportunities, food, health care, housing, and
195195 6 community cohesion. Trauma can be experienced by anyone,
196196 7 though it is disproportionately experienced by members of
197197 8 marginalized groups. Systemic and historical oppression, such
198198 9 as racism, is often at the root of this inequity. Symptoms may
199199 10 vary at different developmental stages and across different
200200 11 cultural groups and different communities.
201201 12 "Trauma-responsive learning environments" means learning
202202 13 environments developed during an ongoing, multiyear-long
203203 14 process that typically progresses across the following 3
204204 15 stages:
205205 16 (1) A school or district is "trauma aware" when it:
206206 17 (A) has personnel that demonstrate a foundational
207207 18 understanding of a broad definition of trauma that is
208208 19 developmentally and culturally based; includes
209209 20 students, personnel, and communities; and recognizes
210210 21 the potential effect on biological, cognitive,
211211 22 academic, and social-emotional functioning; and
212212 23 (B) recognizes that traumatic exposure can impact
213213 24 behavior and learning and should be acknowledged in
214214 25 policies, strategies, and systems of support for
215215 26 students, families, and personnel.

225225 SB3092 - 6 - LRB103 37752 RJT 67880 b
226226 1 (2) A school or district is "trauma responsive" when
227227 2 it progresses from awareness to action in the areas of
228228 3 policy, practice, and structural changes within a
229229 4 multi-tiered system of support to promote safety, positive
230230 5 relationships, and self-regulation while underscoring the
231231 6 importance of personal well-being and cultural
232232 7 responsiveness. Such progress may:
233233 8 (A) be aligned with the Illinois Quality Framework
234234 9 and integrated into a school or district's continuous
235235 10 improvement process as evidence to support allocation
236236 11 of financial resources;
237237 12 (B) be assessed and monitored by a
238238 13 multidisciplinary leadership team on an ongoing basis;
239239 14 and
240240 15 (C) involve the engagement and capacity building
241241 16 of personnel at all levels to ensure that adults in the
242242 17 learning environment are prepared to recognize and
243243 18 respond to those impacted by trauma.
244244 19 (3) A school or district is healing centered when it
245245 20 acknowledges its role and responsibility to the community,
246246 21 fully responds to trauma, and promotes resilience and
247247 22 healing through genuine, trusting, and creative
248248 23 relationships. Such school schools or district districts
249249 24 may:
250250 25 (A) promote holistic and collaborative approaches
251251 26 that are grounded in culture, spirituality, civic

264264 3 and communities while engaging people in collective
265265 4 action that moves from transactional to
266266 5 transformational.
267267 6 "Whole child" means using a child-centered, holistic,
268268 7 equitable lens across all systems that prioritizes physical,
269269 8 mental, and social-emotional health to ensure that every child
270270 9 is healthy, safe, supported, challenged, engaged, and
271271 10 protected.
272272 11 Starting with the 2024-2025 school year, the teachers
273273 12 institutes shall provide instruction on trauma-informed
274274 13 practices and include the definitions of trauma,

408408 4 (b) In this subsection (b):
409409 5 "Trauma" is defined according to an event, an experience,
410410 6 and effects. Individual trauma results from an event, series
411411 7 of events, or set of circumstances that is experienced by an
412412 8 individual as physically or emotionally harmful or life
413413 9 threatening and that has lasting adverse effects on the
414414 10 individual's functioning and mental, physical, social, or
415415 11 emotional well-being. Collective trauma is a psychological
416416 12 reaction to a traumatic event shared by any group of people.
417417 13 This may include, but is not limited to, community violence,
418418 14 experiencing racism and discrimination, and the lack of the
419419 15 essential supports for well-being, such as educational or
420420 16 economic opportunities, food, health care, housing, and
421421 17 community cohesion. Trauma can be experienced by anyone,
422422 18 though it is disproportionately experienced by members of
423423 19 marginalized groups. Systemic and historical oppression, such
424424 20 as racism, is often at the root of this inequity. Symptoms may
425425 21 vary at different developmental stages and across different
426426 22 cultural groups and different communities.
427427 23 "Trauma-responsive learning environments" means learning
428428 24 environments developed during an ongoing, multiyear-long
429429 25 process that typically progresses across the following 3
430430 26 stages:

440440 SB3092 - 12 - LRB103 37752 RJT 67880 b
441441 1 (1) A school or district is "trauma aware" when it:
442442 2 (A) has personnel that demonstrate a foundational
443443 3 understanding of a broad definition of trauma that is
444444 4 developmentally and culturally based; includes
445445 5 students, personnel, and communities; and recognizes
446446 6 the potential effect on biological, cognitive,
447447 7 academic, and social-emotional functioning; and
448448 8 (B) recognizes that traumatic exposure can impact
449449 9 behavior and learning and should be acknowledged in
450450 10 policies, strategies, and systems of support for
451451 11 students, families, and personnel.
452452 12 (2) A school or district is "trauma responsive" when
453453 13 it progresses from awareness to action in the areas of
454454 14 policy, practice, and structural changes within a
455455 15 multi-tiered system of support to promote safety, positive
456456 16 relationships, and self-regulation while underscoring the
457457 17 importance of personal well-being and cultural
458458 18 responsiveness. Such progress may:
459459 19 (A) be aligned with the Illinois Quality Framework
460460 20 and integrated into a school or district's continuous
461461 21 improvement process as evidence to support allocation
462462 22 of financial resources;
463463 23 (B) be assessed and monitored by a
464464 24 multidisciplinary leadership team on an ongoing basis;
465465 25 and
466466 26 (C) involve the engagement and capacity building

477477 1 of personnel at all levels to ensure that adults in the
478478 2 learning environment are prepared to recognize and
479479 3 respond to those impacted by trauma.
480480 4 (3) A school or district is healing centered when it
481481 5 acknowledges its role and responsibility to the community,
482482 6 fully responds to trauma, and promotes resilience and
483483 7 healing through genuine, trusting, and creative
484484 8 relationships. Such school schools or district districts
485485 9 may:
486486 10 (A) promote holistic and collaborative approaches
487487 11 that are grounded in culture, spirituality, civic
488488 12 engagement, and equity; and
489489 13 (B) support agency within individuals, families,
490490 14 and communities while engaging people in collective
491491 15 action that moves from transactional to
492492 16 transformational.
493493 17 "Whole child" means using a child-centered, holistic,
494494 18 equitable lens across all systems that prioritizes physical,
495495 19 mental, and social-emotional health to ensure that every child
496496 20 is healthy, safe, supported, challenged, engaged, and
497497 21 protected.
498498 22 Starting with the 2024-2025 school year, the teachers
499499 23 institutes shall provide instruction on trauma-informed
500500 24 practices and include the definitions of trauma,
