Purpose

Trauma-informed principles in practice

Trauma-informed principles (TIPs) support healing from adversity.

TIPs:

  • Recognize the impact of trauma.

  • Support conditions for healing.

  • Minimize harm.

Teams can implement TIPs by:

  • Developing practices to support healing.

  • Promoting safety and trust.

  • Collaborating with partners.

WE CAN’T DO THIS WORK ALONE!

This toolkit was made possible from a trusting relationship and work done with The Latina Center located in Richmond, California. Through our collaboration over several years, there were insights and learnings we hope can benefit others as we share them in this toolkit.

The main takeaway is that implementing TIPs benefits everyone. Together, we can work to disrupt the trauma cycle and create paths for healing for ourselves and our communities.
