Resource Guide to Trauma-Informed Human Services: Resources Specific to American Indian/Alaskan Native (AI/AN) Communities

This toolkit from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families provides resources on trauma-informed care that are tailored to the needs of AI/AN communities. The resources are divided into sections based on the different stages of the process of implementing trauma-informed human services. For example, an agency in the beginning phases could use the resources in the “What do we mean by trauma-informed services and why is such an approach important?” section. An agency that has already started implementing trauma-informed services could find resources in the “We’ve begun working on theses, issues, but are trying to decide what to tackle next. How can I figure out next steps?” section. The toolkit also includes examples of treatments for trauma that have been adapted specifically for AI/AN communities.
