Work that has informed our approach:
Trauma-informed care seeks to: realize the widespread impact of trauma and understand paths for recovery; recognize the signs and symptoms of trauma in patients, families, and staff; integrate knowledge about trauma into policies, procedures, and practices; and actively avoid re-traumatization.
Restorative practices are a way to address conflict and build relationships by focusing on repairing harm and restoring trust. They are based on the idea that people are interconnected and good, and that relationships are important. Restorative practices can be used in many settings, including schools, to help people learn, prevent bullying, and create a positive environment.
Social and emotional learning (SEL) is a process that helps people develop the skills to manage their emotions, build relationships, and make responsible decisions. It's a developmental process that starts at birth and continues throughout life.
Healing-Centered Engagement (HCE) is a mental health model that focuses on healing and well-being after traumatic experiences. It's based on the idea that people who have experienced trauma are agents of their own healing, rather than victims.
Restorative justice is a justice approach that aims to repair harm and strengthen relationships after a crime by involving those who were harmed and those who caused the harm. It's based on the idea that crime affects everyone, and that those who caused the harm need to take responsibility for their actions.
Intersectionality is a theory that examines how multiple forms of oppression and discrimination interact to create unique experiences for people. It was first introduced by American civil rights activist Kimberlé Crenshaw in 1989.
Healing justice is a framework that aims to address the consequences of oppression and trauma through a community-centered approach. It involves acknowledging and transforming the impact of racism and other forms of oppression, and creating pathways to wholeness and connection with others.
The Sanctuary Model is a trauma-informed organizational change approach that aims to create a safe, healing, and democratic environment for clients, staff, and families. It's based on the idea that healing from trauma requires a cultural shift that promotes healing, rather than specific treatment methods for individuals.
All constituencies and consumers deserve to be recognized and respected. Facilities, devices, services, and programs must be designed to serve an increasingly diverse clientele. The demographic, legislative, economic, and social changes that brought us to this point are increasing the momentum to develop products and environments more accommodating of an individual's current circumstances and our ever-changing abilities. Universal design provides a blueprint for maximum inclusion of all people.
McGilchrist argues that we have become enslaved to an account of things dominated by the brain’s left hemisphere, one that blinds us to an awe-inspiring reality that is all around us, had we but eyes to see it. He suggests that in order to understand ourselves and the world we need science and intuition, reason and imagination, not just one or two; that they are in any case far from being in conflict; and that the brain’s right hemisphere plays the most important part in each. And he shows us how to recognise the ‘signature’ of the left hemisphere in our thinking, so as to avoid making decisions that bring disaster in their wake.
