While trauma programs have much to offer the incarcerated, the prison setting itself is inherently triggering and retraumatizing. For the past decade, the Northeast Reintegration Center has overcome many of these issues with the Mosaic program, a comprehensive trauma treatment intervention. Presenters will identify critical issues for designing, planning, executing, and sustaining this program as well as strategies to build and maintain support for trauma treatment among prison staff and leadership.

Educational Objectives:

Identify the key elements of effective trauma recovery programs for incarcerated women

Describe the therapeutic framework for selecting interventions and implementing treatment

Define strategies to build support among prison staff and leadership to ensure success
