Hi All,
Want to share the recently updated "Informing A Provider: Some available information and tools for Mental Health providers, for a child or youth with a developmental delay or/and a disability who has experienced trauma."
For those of you unfamiliar with the document:
If we look at what trauma treatment is available for individuals with a developmental delay or/and a disability, some of the gaps we see are:
For mental health providers: May not be aware of what information and tools are available for trauma treatment. May not be aware of what information and tools are available for a delay or/and disability.
For caregivers and others: May need to give the mental health provider the information they need to work with the child and family/other. May need to be more informed about information and tools.
The Informing A Provider document, while not all inclusive, is a place to start. And it is considered a living document, updated as new information or/and tools are available.
UPDATED 09.13.23 - I've also attached the updated Contacting a Provider document.
