L’objectif
Research has shown that the vast majority of individuals who experience problems with opioid misuse and addiction have current or past experiences of trauma and violence.
Constatations/points à retenir
Experiences of trauma and violence are often gendered, in that women, men, trans and gender diverse people have different kinds of experiences. Trauma-informed practice is an approach to care that integrates an understanding of trauma into all levels of care, system engagement, workforce development, organizational policy and cross-sectoral collaborations.
