New Beginnings Trauma-Informed Training Video Series
In 2022, ASLMS expanded the New Beginnings Tattoo Removal Program to include the pro bono removal of branding tattoos for survivors of sex trafficking. Many survivors are branded by their traffickers with tattoos conveying ownership, including names, symbols, and barcodes. This dehumanizing practice can often be a reminder of the trauma a survivor has endured and therefore act as a barrier in the healing process. Removing the brand can be an important step in allowing survivors to reclaim agency over their bodies.
Dr. Dan Sartor, PhD, an expert trauma therapist, has created a 4-part video course on Trauma Informed Training. All those who are part of the patient care experience should view this.
The video series includes:
- Human Trafficking 101 (An introduction to the issue, its prevalence, and impact upon the persons trafficked)
- Foundations of Traumatology (An introduction to PTSD and Complex PTSD and a very brief overview of the recovery process)
- Principles of Trauma-Informed Care (Highlights what trauma-informed care is)
- Guidelines for Providing Trauma-Informed Care with Survivors in the Medical Setting (Practical dos and don’ts for providers and their staffs)
COST:
- Free for ASLMS Members
- $50 for Non-Members
