“Trauma creates change you don’t choose. Healing creates change you do choose.”
– Michelle Rosenthal
Creating conditions of trust and respect will help victims reclaim their lives and move toward self-sufficiency and independence. All victims deserve to feel safe and supported. In this section, service providers can explore:
- The effects of trauma and how to provide trauma-informed services;
- The myths surrounding trauma and disability;
- How service providers can avoid re-traumatizing victims with disabilities; and
- How to address the effects of vicarious trauma on agency staff.
