What does “trauma-informed” mean or look like in action? This Voice of Witness (VOW) resource explores and outlines 10 key trauma-informed practices for storytelling work. While our approach is focused on oral history, these principles apply to many types of community-based, interview-based, or relational work. Whether you’re a journalist, teacher, lawyer, social worker, organizer, healthcare professional, or artist, these concepts can help guide your interactions.
