OAMHP is partnering with the Canadian Centre for Victims of Torture for a workshop on Trauma-informed care.
Over the past 45 years, the Canadian Centre for Victims of Torture has developed a community support model for refugee survivors of torture and war.
This session aims to provide participants with an opportunity to learn about the support model. We’ll start with an explanation of the principles of Trauma Informed Care (TIC).
Designed for mental health professionals, this presentation will also:
- Provide information about the specific needs of survivors of torture and the distinct aspects of this type of trauma.
- Delve into the flexible model of service delivery that should be considered when delivering Trauma Informed Care to this specific type of patient.
- Bring awareness of concepts related to trauma exposure within TIC, such as vicarious trauma and self care.
- Address the dynamics of trauma within families, particularly children and youth.
Participants will also work together on case studies, share best practices, and engage in small and large group reflective exercises.
