Spiritual First Aid for Intergenerational Trauma
Presented by Jamie Aten, PhD

OBJECTIVES: At the end of this session:
1. Describe intergenerational trauma and how patterns of stress, loss, family experience, and coping can affect physical, livelihood, emotional, social, and spiritual needs across generations.
2. Apply Spiritual First Aid Triage to identify a person’s most pressing unmet Primary Need rather than assuming what matters most.
3. Use Spiritual First Aid Care principles, including practical presence and appropriate coping support, to strengthen connection, meaning, resilience, and hope.
4. Recognize when additional support is needed and use Spiritual First Aid referral and resource principles to help connect a person with appropriate mental health, medical, crisis, community, or faith based support.
