Abstract

The Mental Health Special Interest Group in the National Association of Enabling Educators of Australia (NAEEA) has historically focussed their research on the intersections between mental health, enabling students and practitioners. With the increasing prevalence of trauma in the enabling classroom, the group are curating an edited collection that explores the nuances of trauma in enabling classrooms. This collection provides space for first person reflections of trauma in the classroom, qualitative and quantitative accounts of trauma in enabling, as well as strategies for supporting students and practitioners working in the field. This paper will set the scene for this collection by contextualising trauma and its impacts. It will share the methodology for the curated collection, as well as share initial autoethnographic reflections of the increasing prevalence in Australian enabling education.
