Justice Begins with a Trauma-Informed Approach: Reflections and Visions

Justice Begins with a Trauma-Informed Approach: Reflections and Visions

Victims and survivors of sexual assault measure “justice” in many ways. There are evolving community expectations and demands for trauma-informed approaches to victims and survivors. This has led to new professional standards for trauma-informed care in our response, investigation, and prosecution of sexual assault cases, and more importantly, for victims and survivors; “Justice begins with a trauma-informed approach.”
