(Re)Education of Schools Podcast

Building Community

Justin Moorman and Katie Thornton Season 1 Episode 66

Building culture can make or break trauma-informed schools. But if we know that, how do we actually build it? In this episode, Katie and Justin dive into intentional and practical strategies for shaping environments where students and staff can thrive.

We explore:

Environments that foster safety and connection

Intentional “sneaky” training that highlights strengths and builds buy-in

Distributed leadership and how it empowers everyone

Unconditional positive regard as the foundation of relationships

Collective care that sustains the work without losing sight of the mission

Packed with stories, insights, and actionable takeaways, this conversation is about more than just theory—it’s about everyday practices that make a real difference in trauma-informed culture.
