TRAUMA-INFORMED INITIATIVES

​

ISP International's fluency with trauma psychology and human rights frameworks enables our team to create safe spaces for authentic healing to occur.  Our consultants are skilled at identifying ways trauma is upheld systemically and experienced collectively within specific environmental or institutional contexts. Well-versed in resilience theory, we ground our approach in honoring culturally and environmentally learned ways to survive, recover, and thrive in the wake of trauma. We utilize specialized tools to offer incisive feedback on cumulative impacts of systemic oppression. The team at ISP International partners with domestic and international organizations and agencies to assist in dismantling structurally embedded dynamics that perpetuate traumatic experience while also honoring resilience; this in turn eradicates oppressive and discriminatory policies and practices, and reduces likelihood of future adverse events.
