“We need to invert power structures around who says what is good. The people who should decide what a trauma-informed service is, should be our service users.”* – Dr. Hurley
Jennifer Brandt and Dr. Emma Hurley shared powerful insights about shifting power dynamics and putting service users at the centre of trauma-informed practices:
“In my personal opinion, there was no rehabilitative program in prison.”* – Jennifer Brandt, highlighting the importance of rehabilitation in the justice system.
- *“That is why in Trauma Informed Practice Ireland, we have developed standards and a peer review system that puts clients at the centre, as trained and paid reviewers.”* – Dr. Hurley
Jennifer and Dr. Hurley’s session underlined the importance of empowering service users to shape and evaluate the services that affect them, ensuring that trauma-informed practice truly reflects their needs and experiences.
