Trauma Informed Practice
In 2021, there was agreement at the Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Violence Reduction Unit (VRU) board that a trauma-informed strategy would be helpful in developing a shared understanding, language and trauma-informed framework across social care, health, police, fire and voluntary sectors. The hope for this strategy is to meaningfully engage and bring together organisations to journey towards becoming trauma-informed on all levels.
SSBC has provided a series of events that were designed for family and children’s workforce and supports the Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Trauma-Informed Strategy.
