The trauma-informed service provider

CrossCurrents

 

Trauma-informed service providers acknowledge and understand the effects of violence and trauma on those with whom they work. This is evidenced by the fact that they:

  • integrate an understanding of trauma throughout their programs;
  • review policies and procedures to ensure prevention of retraumatization;
  • involve trauma survivors in designing and evaluating services; and
  • place a priority on trauma survivors’ safety, choice and control.
