Discrimination through Trialogue an article in the Irish Journal of Applied Social Studies Simon .ie

Mental health stigma and discrimination is a major societal issue. Participatory approaches such
as Open Dialogue may be effective in bringing about changes in such stigma and discrimination.
Trialogue is an extension of such approaches to three or more sets of stakeholders in mental health

stigma and discrimination over time through this approach and whether this approach may alleviate mental health stigma and discrimination.

Friday February 23, 2018

Trauma informed care is a framework for working with children and youth who are particularly vulnerable. With histories of child abuse and complex trauma, they enter our care systems with troubling behaviours and symptoms, but are not able to articulate their experiences. A trauma informed approach helps to respond more effectively to these children and youth.
