Trauma informed care is crucial in homeless response. While it's important to understand trauma, it's also important to recognize that people can heal from it. Helping house people is a form of healing, and our interactions with clients can promote healing as well. Check out this advice from Kevonya Eliza, a Registered Nurse with experience serving people experiencing homelessness and the Director of Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion at the National Health Care for the Homeless Council.
