Our Work

Incubator members are developing, delivering and evaluating training and education on trauma- and violence-informed care (TVIC) to organizations and individuals across a range of health and social services, including public health, child welfare, policing, hospitals, primary health care, education and more.

A core dimension of the EQUIP Healthcare intervention, TVIC provides a series of low-cost, high impact strategies to provide safe and effective care, while addressing the needs of individual providers for safety and well-being at work, and of organizations to foster cultures of safety for everyone in their settings.

Watch Dr. Colleen Varcoe talk about TVIC, and why the “V” is so important.
