Trauma Informed Care and Homeless Services

This series is in partnership with Welcome Home of Chattanooga and The Chattery. The program is free of charge. Classes take place every Thursday in February, March and April. February is in partnership with National Health Care for the Homeless Council.

The concept of trauma has become so broad in our culture that is has almost lost all meaning. However, for those who have experienced violence, abuse, neglect, incarceration, and other truly traumatic events, trauma can be a devastating part of everyday life and can actually prevent those who are suffering from receiving the help they need. Join us to discover the meaning and causes of trauma, how trauma affects those we serve, and what it means to provide trauma informed care.
