Trauma-Informed Care and Support for Youth Surviving Abuse

Supporting survivors of abuse and assault to feel safe again means approaching client care with an individualized, informed, thoughtful, and compassionate approach. Hear speakers discuss how the guiding pillars of trauma-informed care —safety, choice, collaboration, trustworthiness, and empowerment—can be intentionally applied to working with survivors, best practices for trust-building and non-triggering, non-invasive communication, and resources that exist for survivors experiencing housing instability.

Speakers:

  • Cynthia Lubin-Langtiw, PsyD, PSY Board President, Professor, The Chicago School of Professional Psychology

  • Aubrey Sitler, Owner & Independent Consultant, ACStrategies

  • Amanda Leppert Gomes, Atlanta YAB/Hope thru Soap
