Creating Trauma-Informed Spaces - Information Sheet

This resource provided by the Trauma-Informed Community Network, a part of the Partnership for a Healthier Fairfax, shares a trauma-informed approach to changing systems in a variety of service settings in order to address trauma and its consequences.

SAMHSA also provides six key principles of a trauma-informed approach, which are incorporated into this document alongside additional information on how organizations can assess their policies and practices to align with this approach.

You may also consider reviewing an accompanying checklist which can be used to examine a space and consider whether it is trauma-informed.
