Overview:

Trauma-informed care typically focuses on treating the symptoms experienced by individuals affected by trauma. This approach often isolates these symptoms, leading individuals to feel defined by their traumatic experiences, hence the term "trauma survivor." However, as service providers, we should move away from solely treating symptoms and adopt a more holistic approach that promotes collective well-being. A healing-centered methodology offers this broader perspective, recognizing trauma as part of a person's overall experience and addressing it through various cultural, civic, and collective healing practices. This approach emphasizes the interconnectedness of trauma and healing within communities. By shifting from a treatment-based model to healing-centered engagement, we can restore well-being by leveraging individuals' strengths and fostering a supportive environment. In this training, we will discuss healing-centered approach for Black male patients specifically. Participants will learn to differentiate between trauma-informed care and healing-centered engagement, explore how specific brain regions influence the well-being of Black boys and men, and practice applying healing-centered engagement principles via case studies.

Learning Objectives:

At the conclusion of this activity, attendees will be able to:

Distinguish trauma-informed care from healing centered engagement strategies.
Apply a salutogenic approach to current policies and procedures.
Practice how to apply a healing-centered engagement approach by analyzing a case study.
