• Our September 2024 CTIPP CAN call focused on meeting the moment with trauma-informed advocacy. While trauma-informed efforts are necessary at several levels, trauma-informed advocates have an opportunity to help bring healing to the traumas our systems have and continue to experience. We discussed how trauma is permeating our society and why being congruent with the trauma-informed model is critical as we promote systems transformation.
  • This is the first CTIPP CAN of a four-month series focused on education, networking, and resource-sharing.

• What's involved with forming, operating, and commissioning a Transformational Resilience Coordinating Network (TRCN)? Watch our informational webinar to learn how to prevent and heal climate-generated health and psychosocial problems to build mental wellness and transformational resilience in your community.

• Across the nation, ​Transformational Resilience Coordinating Networks (TRCNs) are developing and implementing community-led strategies that help people remain healthy and resilient as the climate-ecosystem-biodiversity (C-E-B) crisis escalates. Join our UN High Level Climate Champion “Race to Resilience” Initiative to build mental wellness and transformational resilience in your community.

• October 30, 2024: The Pathways Learning Network will explore gaps in trauma-responsive care for older adults and how policymakers can work with community partners, long-term care staff, and other stakeholders to integrate older adults into trauma-responsive frameworks.

• Urge Congress to support the Community Mental Wellness and Resilience Act (S. 1452 and H.R. 3073), which would help communities proactively develop local strategies to build population-level resilience by planning for and responding to the mental health challenges caused by disasters and toxic stress.

• Urge Congress to support the RISE from Trauma Act (S. 1426 and H.R. 4541), which would expand the trauma-informed workforce in schools, healthcare settings, social services, first responders, and the justice system and increase community resources to address the impact of trauma.

• TOOLKIT: Free resources to help you urge Congress to support trauma-informed federal legislation.

• Do you know someone who is already advocating for trauma-informed policies and practices or who would be an awesome addition to the movement? Encourage them to join CTIPP’s Community Advocacy Network today!
