This discussion guide is intended to stimulate further conversation on “becoming trauma-informed” and assist health care and social service providers in considering additional ways of addressing the opioid crisis in their particular context.
These discussions can occur formally and/or informally as part of program planning or evaluation, at staff meetings over the course of a year, or as part of organized training and learning events. The discussion questions are practical and help to take small, concrete steps towards overall organizational change. You may find it useful to explore one topic at a time as a group or work to address specific areas in smaller groups.
