Trauma Resonance Resilience
Season 3, Episode 9 Sheina Rigg on system change in Northern Ireland using a trauma informed framework
Sheina Rigg a Scottish social worker, living in Belfast permanently since 1990 has been seconded to a Trauma Informed Practice Project in 2018 as one of a team of 4 implementation managers, project manager and project lead. Now a smaller project, more embedded in the SBNI structure, they support organisational change using a transformation model devised from a service user perspective, their journey through services and apply a trauma lens/trauma principles to that journey from 'entry' to 'exit'.
Pilot projects have been supported in a range of settings. Covid and lockdown has had its impact, not least on the systems being supported to change however in some ways staff wellbeing has never been so talked about so some doors are more open than they were!
