Recognizing that food insecurity is rooted in trauma, it's crucial to create service spaces that are welcoming, calm, and affirming to positively impact how safe clients feel at your program. Drawing on research in trauma informed design, Shopwork's Designing for Healing Dignity & Joy, SAMHSA’s Trauma and Justice Strategic Initiative, and Trauma Informed Oregon's Foundations of Trauma Informed Care, we’ll breakdown some design elements of a space, and workshop ways to incorporate trauma informed principles into each element.
This workshop will be an interactive, peer learning space with group activities, and group discussions. All activities and discussions are optional, but your participation, and perspectives are greatly appreciated.
