To optimize the impact of trauma-informed policies and programs, states should engage all three branches of government to achieve shared goals. States like Tennessee have implemented coordinated three branch initiatives, and others are beginning to explore strategies to address trauma and promote healing by working across the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. Because so many individuals who interact with the justice system have experienced significant traumatic events, the judicial branch is well-positioned to address and interrupt the cycle of trauma. Focusing on making court policies, programs, design, and training more trauma-responsive provides an opportunity to both prevent re-traumatization and coordinate across sectors to better serve children and families.
