Providing research and training for organizations on trauma and trauma-informed care since 2012.
The UB School of Social Work’s Institute on Trauma and Trauma-Informed Care (ITTIC) helps organizations and individuals understand the effects of trauma and ensure that service systems do not retraumatize vulnerable populations. Through collaborative partnerships and funded research, we work with agencies to provide training, consultation, coaching and evaluation to facilitate trauma-informed culture change and meet your organization’s goals.
We collaborate with agencies and organizations to provide education, training, consultation, coaching, and evaluation services on trauma and trauma-informed approaches. Our services are always tailored to your organization's unique needs. Collaborate with us to develop a work plan that meets your goals and aligns with best practices.
4/11/24 - Dr. Beverly Samways, the Director of Unique Connections in the UK, visited our ITTIC office last week. She was awarded a Churchill Fellowship to come to the United States to explore trauma-informed approaches with various spot across the country. She is particularly interested in trauma-informed approaches for individuals and settings that work with IDD.
ITTIC and Dr. Samways discussed Dr. Samways's practice experience, the 'state of the field' in the UK and the USA, and explored through ITTIC's experience working and consulting with organizations on their path of becoming more trauma-informed.
Thanks for visiting us, Dr. Samways! Safe travels.
