Trauma and Human Trafficking: What You Need to Know (Part 1)

Understanding the elements of trauma-informed care is helpful and supportive in creating a collective understanding of the negative impacts of trauma. It is essential in helping human trafficking survivors heal and recover. Specialized training and treatments in trauma are important for the survivor.

The purpose of this training is to increase understanding of ‘trauma-informed care’ versus ‘approach’ versus ‘trauma treatment’ and how to determine if an organization has integrated each component. A trauma-informed care organization assessment tool will be explored, as well as identifying best practices in trauma treatment for survivors of human trafficking.
