Introducing the Special Section on 'Innovations in Trauma-Informed Health Care'

  • The Special Section is an interprofessional, multidisciplinary collaboration among scholars, clinicians, educators and researchers from across the country. 
  • Robust health and social science research demonstrate that experiences, both positive and traumatic, profoundly shape lifelong health. 
  • This science is so compelling that scientists, clinicians, educators, patients, and policymakers are collaborating to translate it into health care systems, which provide high-value, cost-conscious care that is equitable and supportive of both patients and practitioners, with measurable positive outcomes.
  • The twelve complementary articles in this collection illustrate promising approaches and models that can be adapted and implemented throughout diverse settings while highlighting the gaps in the current health care landscape. 
  • These articles provide a compendium of conceptual and practical guidance for health care professionals, encouraging further development, implementation, and evaluation of trauma-informed health care.
  • The intent of the special section is to inspire readers to advance trauma, equity, and resilience education, practice, and research in their own settings and beyond.
