The Damaging Consequences of Violence and Trauma: Facts, Discussion Points, and Recommendations for the Behavioral Health System
Description:
This document is a resource for people—at the local, state, and/or federal levels—who are in the process of transforming systems of care into systems that recognize and address trauma and for those who are trying to prove that a trauma-informed system of care is a priority now. The findings reported in this document demonstrate clearly that trauma must be addressed on policy, practice, and educational levels so that individuals who suffer from trauma can have a better chance at recovery, paralleling the vision presented in the Achieving the Promise report.
