Grounded in trauma- and violence-informed (TVI) principles, this session will highlight practical ways service providers can recognize and respond to mental health concerns; reduce stigma; and support survivor safety, autonomy, and dignity — even when working within systemic constraints.
The session will also explore promising approaches and strategies for direct service work, including supporting survivors in crisis, navigating co-occurring risks, strengthening communication across sectors, and integrating collaborative, coordinated practices that honour survivor choice and promote sectoral alignment
