Design that is trauma-informed centers healing as an integral part of the design process and prioritizes it as an observable outcome in the built environment. It is good for everyone because spaces are purpose built and empower individuals and communities to steward the design of homes, schools, neighborhoods, etc. It goes beyond tactical interventions when a trauma-informed design process offers an opportunity to disrupt the structural systems that perpetuate trauma.
