Trauma Informed Care Practices for Sexual Assault Advocates

A trauma-informed approach to sexual assault services is all about understanding how the brain and the body work together. It is essential that sexual assault advocates are given the knowledge and tools they need to support survivors in a way that reduces re-traumatization, centers survivor-autonomy, and promotes healing and empowerment. In this live webinar, we will discuss sexual violence related trauma; discuss how trauma impacts a survivors psychological, physical, and emotional well-being; identify common trauma responses; and explore what it means for sexual assault advocates to provide truly trauma-informed care.
