The Changing View Of Trauma

The National Center for Trauma-Informed Care (NCTIC) ” facilitates the adoption of trauma-informed environments in the delivery of a broad range of services including mental health, substance use, housing, vocational or employment support, domestic violence and victim assistance…NCTIC seeks to change the paradigm from one that asks, “What’s wrong with you?” to asking, “What has happened to you?” SAMSHA clearly recognizes the importance of providing trauma informed services across the spectrum to provide best practices. Shouldn’t this be a standard of care for all mental health providers?
