Trauma-Informed Care Training
Trauma-Informed Care Training
Trauma-informed care is a service delivery approach focused on an understanding of and responsiveness to the impact of trauma. It promotes positive outcomes by emphasizing physical, psychological, and emotional safety and enhances wellbeing by empowering individuals to define their needs and goals and make choices about their care and services.
Trauma-informed care is a universal framework that can be implemented in any organization that works with people. A trauma-informed culture is one in which people 1) anticipate that many people we serve or interact with may have histories of trauma and 2) understand that the environment and interpersonal interactions can inadvertently contribute to trauma responses or intentionally support healing. Trauma-informed care requires that all staff are trained to be aware of trauma and avoid processes and practices that may re-traumatize survivors.
