But did you know that without proper training

in trauma care, your good intentions might inadvertently trigger more trauma in those you seek to help?

5 Reasons You Need to be Trauma-Informed

 

Ministry leaders, here are 5 reasons why you need to be trauma-informed in your ministry:

1. Connect Better with Those in Need

Whether you're a prison chaplain, rescuing people from trafficking, helping those through divorce or abuse, leading a women’s or a men’s group, running a small group, or church, or volunteering at a ministry, you encounter individuals with trauma.

Being trauma-informed helps you connect and support these individuals effectively.

Maybe your church has shifted from having to handle a lot of people immigrating to the US with a lot of trauma, and you feel frozen and not sure how to help best the immense problems coming through your doors.
