Ohio’s Trauma-Informed Care Initiative

Y6 OPCWI Preceptor Development Webinar Series: Ohio’s Trauma-Informed Care Initiative

Presented by The Ohio Assn of Community Health Centers

The Ohio Departments of Mental Health and Addiction Services (OhioMHAS) and Developmental Disabilities (DODD) collaborate on a statewide Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) Initiative intended to promote a greater sense of safety, security and equality among consumers/clients. TIC is an approach that explicitly acknowledges the role trauma plays in people’s lives. TIC means that every part of an organization or program understands the impact of trauma on the individuals they serve and adopts a culture that considers and addresses this impact. Trauma Informed Care Principles: Safety; Trustworthiness and Transparency; Peer support and mutual self-help; Collaboration and mutuality; Empowerment, voice and choice; Cultural, historical and gender issues.

Speakers: Kim Kehl, Trauma-Informed Care Project Care Coordinator, Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services
