Social workers are now staffed at all 22 recreation centers in Cleveland, Mayor Justin Bibb said this week.
“These are places where children, youth and adults can get the support and services they need in an environment in which trauma-informed care principles are fully embedded in the fabric of the culture,” said Megan Holmes, associate professor and founding director of the Trauma Center at the university’s Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences in a statement.
In phase one, recreation center staff received training on trauma-informed care and the city hired a dozen counselors and social workers to work in Cleveland recreation centers. Phase two involved the development of trauma-informed standards, like policies, governance and engagement, and ways to monitor progress., one in four children experience at least one potentially traumatic event before the age of 16.
