CLICK HERE FOR PRESENTATION SLIDES
Overview
Trauma- and Violence-Informed Care (TVIC) is a key dimension, along with substance use health and cultural safety, of equity-oriented care. TVIC focuses on making care encounters as safe as possible for people who have experienced trauma, including all forms of interpersonal violence, as well as historical, collective and structural violence, with specific attention to stigma and discrimination. In this keynote, recent developments and innovations in the foundations, key elements and advantages of TVIC are presented with a focus on integrating practical resources, tools and strategies to strengthen their own practice, enhance organizational responses, and promote broader adoption of TVIC.
