Trauma Informed Practice

This course is also available to be facilitated off-site at your work location. To arrange this, please contact OCPTU@dcj.nsw.gov.au

This course is specifically designed for people who work directly with those who have experienced (or are highly likely to have experienced) trauma.

Trauma informed practices can assist in minimising the chances of an inmate/offender being re – traumatised whilst in the care of Corrective Services New South Wales (CSNSW), and by incorporating the trauma informed principles into daily interactions it can assist with the creation of a more rehabilitative environment.

This course is not designed to give people the skills and knowledge to treat trauma, however being trauma informed is about knowing how to identify trauma to better respond and refer appropriately.

This workshop will cover the following;

  • Introduction to Trauma Informed Practice
  • Understanding the nature and impact of trauma
  • Recognition of safety
