She had it backwards! In this episode Shelby breaks down the difference between being "trauma aware" vs "trauma informed" for anyone who is a care provider working individually or within an organization or system.  People who haven't been overwhelmed by the impacts of trauma also value these types of care as well.  You'll learn why being trauma informed is a necessity whereas being "trauma specific" is not.  You'll learn how to start moving towards being direct and informative with people impacted by trauma instead of tiptoeing around them which is not helpful for anyone.
