We all know the adage: put on your own oxygen mask before assisting others. But when was the last time you gave yourself permission to pause and reflect on your own well-being? New research shows that many SHS workers are feeling the full weight of stress, exhaustion, and overwhelm. Self-Care for the Homelessness Workforce is a full-day workshop for dedicated sector practitioners looking for practical strategies to manage stress, prevent burnout, and address the impacts of vicarious trauma—common challenges in the work we do. You’ll leave with the tools to make self-care a realistic, sustainable part of your everyday work life. Sound impossible? It’s not! Because looking after yourself isn’t selfish—it’s the foundation for meaningful, compassionate practice.
