In 2021, Lost Sparrows hosted our first annual conference on developmental trauma. Two hundred and fifty people sat through a long, but encouraging and informative day of speakers addressing various issues surrounding trauma. We felt like it was a great start, but we could do better. So we are excited to share that we are hosting our second annual Trauma Conference this October 14-15 in Winona Lake, Indiana.
The challenges brought on by early adversity and childhood trauma are felt by every community. Whether you have experienced your own overwhelming traumatic events, or work with others that have trauma, or desire to learn more about complex developmental trauma, this conference will have something for you. We want to help parents support their children better, teachers to understand the complexities of their students, and other community members be empowered to help in the healing process. We hope you will join us for an encouraging and hope-filled weekend.

The following was shared by one of our conference attendees. We appreciate them sharing their thoughts.
Hands down, the BEST conference I’ve ever attended. It was well put together with engaging speakers, incredible vulnerability, gut-wrenching stories and stories of redemption. I had practical tools to take home and use with my daughter who is struggling with trauma. There was a great sense of community that I have never felt before. And most of all, God was right there with us, blessing us with knowledge, community, tools, His Love and His Guidance. I thought I was coming to this conference to be educated on trauma, I didn’t expect such a profound impact on my heart, my faith and my spirituality. God is so good!! Thank you for this conference!!
