Becoming and being trauma-informed is a gradual and continual process of development – it requires ‘buy-in’ throughout the whole system, and continual investment of time and effort to adapt to the evolving context, e.g., as new staff join the organisation, as policies are reviewed and revised. It is not a training package, a ‘tick-box’ exercise or a simple case of re-writing policies.
Amendments can be made to any sections of this template to suit your organisational context.
