Healthcare settings and systems present potent opportunities to prevent trauma and promote holistic well-being.
SAMHSA’s six principles of a trauma-informed approach emphasize the importance of attending to cultural, historical, and gender issues, and part of the work of enlivening this principle entails being attuned to how sociopolitical shifts happening around the arena of women’s healthcare will exacerbate existing, intersecting challenges in ways that shape experiences and outcomes, as well as taking action to disrupt preventable, predictable cycles of trauma through responding in ways that intentionally reduce traumatization and re-traumatization for all who engage with the system.
Join our September CTIPP CAN call for a briefing on our new toolkit, created in partnership with people with lived personal and professional experience interfacing with women’s healthcare systems. This toolkit:
- highlights the unique challenges women face in attending to their healthcare needs
- proposes ways to address disparities and constellations of disadvantage concerning women’s health
- emphasizes the significance of this paradigm shift in creating a system that supports the full humanity and well-being of women and the healthcare workforce
This toolkit provides information, resources, tools, and action steps for change agents, advocates, and activists who wish to honor lived experiences and support recovery, healing, and well-being for all.
