IDHS - Trauma Informed Care: Trauma Informed Agency Strategies Virtual Training

This training is exclusively for SNAP and/or TANF Employment & Training providers in Illinois.

Agencies that have implemented a trauma-informed approach have realized improvements in productivity and organizational outcomes. Trauma-informed care recognizes the presence of trauma symptoms and acknowledges the role trauma may play in an individual's life-including service staff. Becoming a trauma-informed agency means making a commitment to changing the practices, policies, and culture of an entire organization. On an organizational level, trauma-informed care changes organizational culture to emphasize respecting and appropriately responding to the effects of trauma at all levels.

After attending this training, you will be able to: 

  • Develop a deeper understanding of what it means to be trauma informed

  • Understand the foundation of a trauma informed response

  • Learn how to collaborate with other providers to adopt a more trauma-informed system-wide approach
