“A healing centered approach to addressing

trauma requires a different question that moves

beyond “what happened to you” to “what’s right

with you” and views those exposed to trauma as

agents in the creation of their own well-being

rather than victims of traumatic events.”

Core Components of HCE

Healing Centered Engagement is culturally

grounded and views healing as the

restoration of identity.

Healing Centered Engagement is asset

driven and focuses on well-being we want,

rather than symptoms we want to suppress.
