Synopsis

Despite the serious and often debilitating consequences of violent crime, most survivors do not receive needed services after the trauma. The most disadvantaged crime survivors, including people of color, people living in poverty, LGBTQ survivors, and non-English speakers are among those least likely to receive support services. Barriers to care include psychological distress, physical injuries, the stigma associated with being a victim, and not knowing where to turn for help. The UCSF Trauma Recovery Center (TRC) model is designed to remove these and other barriers to care. By using a trauma-informed approach to outreach, clinical case management, and evidence-based mental health treatments, the TRC model has been proven both clinically and cost-effective. Outcomes include reducing survivors’ mental and emotional distress, increasing functionality and well-being, and improving survivors’ overall quality of life. This manual is designed to be of use for new TRCs whether they are entirely new programs or are adding services to an existing program structure. It provides the framework for developing different components of the TRC model as well samples of clinical tools such as intake assessments, plans of care, and risk assessment guides. From the philosophy and structure of a TRC to the nuts-and-bolts tools needed to implement clinical services, this manual provides a comprehensive road map for engaging and serving crime survivors from underserved populations.
