Building a Trauma-Responsive and Resilient Workplace
Trauma-responsive organizations support both the clients they serve and the staff who are critical to their success. Frontline staff working within systems that respond to trauma carry a high risk for the physical, mental, and behavioral health risks that come from secondary traumatic stress. Building a trauma-responsive organization can create an environment to provide compassionate, collaborative programming for clients, and support a happy, healthy, and resilient workforce. On April 10, 2023 Pathways to Resilience hosted a Learning Network session featuring Justin Brown, Oklahoma Secretary of Human Services; Vickie Choitz from the Corporation for a Skilled Workforce’s Trauma and Resilience at Work team, and Audrey Smolkin from Massachusetts’ Center on Child Wellbeing and Trauma to discuss how to support a trauma-responsive workplace that promotes healing and resilience.
