National Center for Trauma-Informed Care

The National Center for Trauma-Informed Care (NCTIC) is a resource and support organization that promotes understanding of how traumatic experiences impact individuals' health and well-being. It helps healthcare providers, social services, and community organizations adopt approaches that recognize trauma’s effects, ensuring services are respectful, supportive, and promote healing. The goal is to create environments where people feel safe, empowered, and engaged in their recovery, by integrating trauma-informed principles into policies and practices. This approach improves outcomes for individuals who have experienced trauma and fosters a more compassionate, effective response across various service systems.
