Trauma Informed Best Practices and Resiliency

Children who experience fleeing from their home countries, whether with family members or unaccompanied, almost certainly experience trauma. The response of caring systems should remain grounded in the known principles of trauma-informed care, an understanding of best practices based on evidence-based and informed interventions and the developmental process. In addition, care providers should be working to maximize the safety of the environment in which they are interacting with children and youth and considering the style, approach, and content of interaction to balance the purpose of any interaction with the safety and security needs of each child or youth.
