Resilience
What We Offer
We provide services that bring hope to children, youth, men, and women affected by domestic violence.
Trauma-Informed Care
Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) is a framework for client services which recognizes, understands and responds sensitively to the impacts of all types of trauma on individuals. TIC additionally focuses on providing those who have experienced trauma with both physical and emotional safety while rebuilding their sense of confidence and control over their lives. This approach believes that individuals who have been impacted by trauma can recover and heal, it also works to prevent re-traumatization.
At Sojourner Center, we recognize the significant trauma impacts that domestic violence and human trafficking can have on the individuals and children we serve. We strive to ensure that TIC is implemented at all levels of services, from the daily interactions with residents in all of our programs, to ongoing staff educational trainings on trauma, and incorporation of TIC practices into agency policies. This approach is one of three key components to providing Sojourner residents with the highest standard of care.
