Helping you build a resilient community in times of hurt is the goal of a conference being planned in Door County to take place later this year. The Door County Trauma Informed Care Community Team, made up of local non-profit, governmental, and health organizations, is working on creating the Hope Beyond The Hurt Conference to take place August 15th at Stone Harbor Resort in Sturgeon Bay. The day-long conference will be open to professionals and parents in the community so they can learn how to build resilience within themselves and those around them by learning the Safe Person Seven Promises. Tamra Oman of EXPO of Wisconsin will be the keynote speaker at the conference, representing an organization that works to restore formerly incarcerated individuals to become full participants in their community. United Way of Door County Executive Director Amy Kohnle says it should be a powerful day of learning.
