CARP's mission, goals and vision are rooted in practicing Trauma Informed Care. Trauma Informed Care principles are safety, trustworthiness/transparency, providing peer support, collaboration, empowerment and humility. We all accomplish these principles by ensuring our guests feel respected and supported. Ensuring staff maintain healthy interpersonal boundaries and can manage conflict appropriately. Keeping consistent schedules and procedures. Offering sufficient notice and preparation when changes are necessary. Maintaining communication that is consistent, open, respectful, and compassionate: and being aware of how an individual's culture affects how they perceive trauma, safety and privacy.
