FOCUS ON RESILIENCE FACTORS
Voice/Choice/Working with Others
Impact of Trauma
When we experience something as traumatic, power is either taken away from us or power is used over us:
Our voices are ignored, silenced, or used against us
Our choices are taken away, limited, or lack meaning
Our ability to work with others over our lives and decisions is non-existent or given over to those in our life who are in positions of power
The Antidote
Facilitating opportunities where people can use their voices (speaking and non speaking!), have choices that are relevant to their gifts, passions, interests and exercise working with others in their life!
