Description

The Way Forward is a practical guide to the Who, What, Why, When, and How of incorporating Trauma Responsive Care (TRC) not only into the way you care for people with an intellectual or developmental disability, but into your corporate culture— how you care for one another, every day.

Kevin Aldridge makes the mantra of Trauma Responsive Care an attainable goal for you and your organization: Safe. Connected. In Control.

The Way Forward builds on Lara Palay’ s groundbreaking The Way Through. It will help you start implementing TRC, equip your staff for the change, and make the transformation a lasting foundation for your organization.
