1) Select a social issue of concern that is embedded in historical trauma and impacts a vulnerable population. Engage the community partner with this issue.
2) Identify a trauma-informed policy solution (or partial policy solution) to the social issue.
Apply the Policy Process Model from Colby (2018) or the CDC Policy Website https://www.cdc.gov/policy/analysis/process/

4) Identity what needs to be amended in this policy to address and reduce re-traumatization,
victimization, and/or oppression for the identified vulnerable population.
5) Discuss how this policy amendment will increase access to care for those affected by
trauma and enhance service delivery
6) Identify some of the weaknesses in the proposed policy solution. For example, what
populations would not be addressed by your partial policy solution?
7) Reflect on the process of engaging stakeholders in advocating, creating, implementing
and evaluating this trauma-informed policy to assist the identified vulnerable population.
