physical, social, emotional, or spiritual well-being

(SAMHSA)4

What is Trauma?

The individual’s experience of these events or circumstances helps to determine whether it is a traumatic event. The long-lasting adverse effects on an individual are the result of the individual’s experience of the event or circumstance.

Prevalence of Trauma

Exposure to trauma is especially common among individuals with• Mental illness• Substance use disorders• Developmental disabilities

13

Trauma in adults – Mental Health

14

• More than 84% of adult mental health clients will have trauma histories (Meuser et al, 2004)

• 50% of female and 25% of male clients experienced sexual assault in adulthood (Read et al, 2008)

• Clients with histories of childhood abuse will have earlier first admissions, more frequent and longer hospital stays, more time in seclusion and restraints, greater likelihood of self-injury or suicide attempts, more medication use and more severe symptoms (Read et al, 2008)

Trauma in adults – Substance Abuse

15

• Up to 65% of all clients in substance abuse treatment report childhood abuse (SAMHSA, 2013)

• Up to 75% of women in substance abuse treatment have trauma histories (SAMHSA, 2009)

• Over 92% of homeless mothers have trauma histories, They have twice the rate of drug and alcohol dependence as those without

(SAMHSA, 2011)• Almost 1/3 of all veterans seeking treatment for a

substance use disorder have PTSD (National Center for PTSD)

Trauma in adults – Kids

16

• 71% of children are exposed to violence each year (Finkelhor et al, 2013)

• 3 million children are maltreated or neglected each year (Child Welfare info, 2013)

• 3.5-10 million witness violence against their mother each year (Child Witness to Violence Project, 2013)

• 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 6 boys were sexually abused before adulthood (NCTSN Fact Sheet, 2009)

• 94% of children in juvenile justice settings have experience trauma (Rosenberg et al, 2014)

Trauma in person with developmental disabilities

17

Increased risk for abuse as compared to the general population (Gil, 1970; Mahoney & Camilo, 1998; Ryan, 1994)

Over four times as likely to be victims of crime (Sobsey, 1996)

Two – ten times more likely to sexually abused than those without disabilities (Westat Ind., 1993)

Often experience rejection and loneliness (Pitonyak)

Trauma in person with developmental disabilities

18

• One out of every three children and adults with developmental disabilities will experience abuse in their lifetime

• More that 90% of the time, that abuse will be inflicted by the very person they rely on to protect and support them

• With limited verbal skills, they may not have been able to tell anyone. And just because the actual traumatic event is over, it continues to play out in one's response to future situations

• Choose to judge behavior less and seek to understand what might be underneath and behind it; we must always be particularly cautious of seeing behavior as attention-seeking or manipulative

Trauma in older adults

19

• Based on a community sample of older adults, about 70% of older men reported lifetime exposure to trauma; older women reported a lower rate, around 41%

• In a large sample of older adults, greater lifetime trauma exposure was related to poorer self-rated health, more chronic health problems, and more functional difficulties

• Among a community sample of older women (average age = 70), 72% had experienced at least one type of interpersonal trauma during their lives (e.g., childhood physical or sexual abuse; rape) and higher rates of interpersonal trauma were related to increased psychopathology

A child with 6 or more categories of adverse childhood experiences is 250% more likely to become an adult smoker .Smoking may not be caused by existence of local gas station availability or genetic predisposition

Childhood experiences and adult alcoholism

26

A 500% increase in adult alcoholism is directly related to adverse childhood experiences.

2/3rds of all alcoholism can be attributed to adverse childhood experiences

This certainly suggests that alcoholism, contrary to popular belief, may not be simply a disease – but rather be a means by which the individual has learned to ease the pain of the trauma – or to balance his/her nervous system – e.g. sooth anxiety.

Important ALWAYS to address and treat trauma along with alcoholism.

How does ACES affect our society?

Cost of Trauma

Trauma is a major driver of medical illness, including cardiac disease and cancer

Addressing trauma can positively impact the physical, behavioral, social and economic health of Ohio and Ohioans

30

What can be done about ACEs?

• These wide-ranging health and social consequences underscore the importance of preventing ACEs before they happen

• Safe, stable and nurturing relationships can have a positive impact on a broad range of health problems and on the development of skills that will help children reach their full potential

• Strategies that help address the needs that children and families have include:

31

Home visiting to pregnant women and families with newborns

Parenting Training Programs Intimate partner violence prevention

Social support for parents

Parent support programs for teens And teen pregnancy prevention programs

Sufficient income support for lower income families

Early childhood programs and environments

Mental illness and substance abuse treatment

trauma affects all people in the organization, including:• Patients• Staff• Others involved with the system

• Responds by fully integrating knowledge about trauma into practices, policies, procedures, and environment.

32

Key Principles of Trauma-Informed Care

• Safety• Trustworthiness and transparency• Collaboration and mutuality• Empowerment• Voice and choice• Peer support and mutual self-help• Cultural, historical and gender issues

Resiliency and strength-based

Commit to agencies and organizations becoming trauma-informed.

Progress to date:• MHAS website developed as a “clearinghouse” for information related to TIC distributing up-

to-date information about TIC to the field, including materials for clinicians and health professionals, those who may have experienced trauma and other interested individuals

• http://mha.ohio.gov/traumacare• 2,000 TIC Principles of Care posters developed in collaboration with NCTIC and SAMHSA Center for Evidenced-Based Practice, Case Western Reserve University educational materials including:

What accomplishments do agencies have to build upon to create coercion and violence free settings? What can be accomplished together that agencies cannot accomplish alone in order to move alternatives to seclusion and restraint to the next level? What policy challenges exist that prevent the overall reduction in the use of seclusion and restraint or other aversive practices in children’s residential programs?

43


Partnership WorkGoal:Support the implementation of trauma-informed care systems and trauma-specific services across Ohio’s social services systems. Progress to date:• Formation of a Statewide TIC Advisory Committee by coordinating existing
