FLINT, MI -- Trauma effects people differently and how leaders respond to people's reactions to trauma is important in building a resilient community.

That's why a small group of decision makers gathered to learn trauma-informed skills they can pass on to their community at a Flint RECAST workshop Thursday at the Legal Service of Eastern Michigan.

Flint RECAST is a project that teaches a Community Resiliency Modelto inform community leaders about trauma-informed skills and approaches. The City of Flint was awarded a $4.8 million grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration to implement the project in October 2016.
