Trauma-Informed Care

Experiencing a trauma can change the way an individual perceives the world. Whether it is a single event (such as natural disaster, a fire, or an automobile accident) or a more complex trauma (like prolonged exposure to abuse, attachment issues, or community violence), a youth or adult's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors can be impacted and filtered through this perspective.

Yamhill County HHS provides trauma-sensitive services for clients and family members who are supporting those receiving services. This begins with an initial screening and assessment and continues by utilizing strategies and staff approaches to promote a culture of care that is trauma-informed and person-centered.
