What is it?

The My Ends Homecooked project has put together an offer of three different types of training to help support the awareness and understanding of Mental Health in the Tottenham Hale area of Haringey. The three types of training available are:

Trauma-informed Practice Training

Trauma-informed practice training aims to equip workers and organisational structures across the health, social care, and justice sectors with the knowledge and skills to mitigate some of these negative and costly effects. Due to the potentially widespread beneficial effects that a trauma informed approach may have. 

Trauma informed practice is not designed specifically to treat trauma related difficulties. Instead it seeks to address the barriers that those affected by trauma can experience while accessing the care, support and treatment they require for a healthy life. Those most in need may also be hardest to reach and most unlikely to engage with services. Trauma informed practice seeks to ensure that services can: 

  • recognise that trauma is common
  • realise these experiences might have a range of impacts which is relevant to the service you are delivering to this individual
  • respond safely and effectively, ensuring that those who require it are referred for and receive the necessary trauma specific interventions for recovery

The Knowledge and Skills framework has been built up based both on the latest theory and evidence in the area but, very importantly, also drawing from the experiences and opinions of people who had lived through trauma, abuse and adversity.
