It does not feel good. Many people go through this every day — at shelters, schools, offices, and care centers.
Andrea Noakes Vancouver is helping change that.
She supports something called Trauma-Informed Care. It means that people who work in community groups and organizations learn how to:
💛 Treat everyone with respect
💛 Understand that some people have been hurt before
💛 Create safe and welcoming spaces
💛 Never make people feel ashamed or scared
This is not hard to learn. Any group can do it. Big or small. Rich or not.
When we care for people the right way, whole communities get stronger and happier.
Andrea Noakes Vancouver believes that better care starts with better understanding. And that starts with YOU.
