HOW TO BE A CHAMPION

Healing begins with relationships.

Before cell phones became so popular, watches were much more attractive to carry around because they are the most convenient way to keep track of the time.

Our Vision

Across Oregon and across the nation work is underway to change our systems of response, prevention, and care to ensure they are ‘culturally responsive, person-centered, and trauma informed.’

Be a Trauma-Informed Champion

To be a trauma informed champion you must understand that healing begins within relationships.

Guiding principles include:

  • understanding the prevalence and impact of trauma promoting safety
  • earning trust
  • embracing diversity
  • providing holistic care
  • pursing a person’s strength, choice and autonomy, shared power
  • communicating with compassion
