TRAUMA INFORMED ORGANISATIONAL TOOLKIT


FROM THE LEGAL ASSISTANCE SECTOR, FOR THE SECTOR

AUSTRALIA’S FIRST TRAUMA INFORMED TOOLKIT FOR THE LEGAL ASSISTANCE SECTOR

With You has developed a Toolkit is an implementation-ready, comprehensive guide
to foster the development of trauma-informed, rights-based legal assistance
services.



The prevalence of trauma amongst clients of the legal assistance sector is
uncontested, particularly at the point where they need legal assistance. A
lawyer who can recognise and respond to trauma can deliver an effective legal
service, without causing further harm, and lessen the impact of vicarious
trauma.



In addition to training frontline staff, legal services must embody
trauma-informed and rights-based principles across all aspects of service
design, organisational culture, leadership and management.



The Organisational Toolkit is underpinned by an international review of academic
and grey literature, a National Legal Aid survey of existing best practices, and
innovative approaches observed through national consultations spanning all
states and territories. The consultations with clients of the sector, lawyers,
and other stakeholders have concluded that trauma-informed, rights-based
practice should be a core competency for all staff in the legal assistance
sector.



A PDF version of the toolkit is available to print and share here
