Trauma Informed Care: Perspectives and Resources
This comprehensive web-based tool, developed by the National Technical Assistance Center for Children’s Mental Health and JBS International, serves as a practical guide for leaders and decision makers at all levels seeking to implement trauma-informed practices in child-serving systems. The resource combines issue briefs, video interviews with national and local stakeholders, and extensive resource lists to tell the story of trauma-informed service implementation, while offering concrete guidance for organizations on their journey toward becoming trauma-informed. The tool addresses fundamental questions about what trauma-informed care means, why it matters, and how to build trauma-informed systems and organizations that better serve children and their families.
