Employment Strategies: Trauma-Informed Care

This resource explores why being a trauma-informed workplace is crucial and also offers trainings and other resources for starting your organization's journey to becoming trauma-informed. 

Integrating a Racial and Ethnic Equity Lens into Workforce Development Training for Young Adults

This brief explores how one local partnership in the Generation Work initiative, led by the Goodwill of Central and Southern Indiana (GCSI) and specifically its Excel Center® adult high schools—rolled out racial and ethnic equity and inclusion (REEI) training for its staff throughout the organization as part of its recognition that PYD approaches would have limited reach without more explicit REEI work. 

Supporting and Affirming LGBTQIA2S+ Youth and Young Adults: Tip Sheet

This tip sheet was developed as a tool to support Runaway and Homeless Youth (RHY) programs, organizations, and their communities by outlining effective practices for supporting, affirming, and improving outcomes for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, questioning, queer, intersex, asexual, and two spirit, as well as non-binary and gender expansive (LGBTQIA2S+) youth and young adults.

Building Trauma-Informed Runaway and Homeless Youth Programs

This two-part, online module series is designed to support RHY grantees and all youth-serving agencies in adopting a universal, trauma-informed approach to serving youth experiencing unsafe or unstable living situations, homeless youth, and youth who are at risk of becoming homeless.

Trauma-Informed Care Toolkit for Youth Service Providers

This toolkit was developed to introduce community-based organizations that serve youth who have experienced homelessness with resources to understand Trauma-Informed Care (TIC). The toolkit focuses on how service providers can support youth’s wholeness by cultivating safety, awareness, trust, and empathy.

Integrating Positive Youth Development and Racial Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging Approaches Across the Child Welfare and Justice Systems

In this paper, the authors explore why child welfare and justice systems need a new emphasis on positive youth development (PYD) approaches that incorporate racial equity and inclusion, why it is important to focus on young adults specifically, and why the child welfare and justice systems are particularly important sectors in which to provide positive, developmentally appropriate supports. 

Child Welfare Trauma Training Toolkit

This toolkit supports caseworkers, supervisors, and all other levels of the child welfare workforce in implementing trauma-informed knowledge and skills in their daily interactions, professional services and organizational culture.
