Episode Notes
Three things you’ll learn in this episode:
- CTIPP focuses on building a trauma-informed society by fostering cross-sector collaboration. The organization seeks to eliminate silos in trauma-informed care across different sectors such as education, healthcare, and the criminal justice system. It aims to create a vision for a society that integrates trauma-informed practices into all services, advocating for transformative change in the way systems operate and support individuals.
- Building Population-Level Resilience: The focus is on working with communities to proactively build resilience before disasters occur, including events like extreme weather, mass violence, and terrorist attacks. This involves developing trauma-informed, community-led outreach initiatives, and transformational resilience networks that promote advocacy and action at all levels.
- Challenges of the Nonprofit Sector: The nonprofit sector faces significant challenges in funding and collaboration due to competitive landscapes created by philanthropy and government. There is a need for more preventive measures, collaboration, and sustainable systems to maximize the impact of trauma-informed care and services.
