Empowerment from Early Life Adversity and Trauma
Supporting sustained change from the impact of early life adversity and trauma…..
At Reset-21 CIC we are passionate about personal empowerment from early life adversity and trauma.
This means that we are committed to equip practitioners; organisations; peer-support workers and volunteers alike with the necessary skills and knowledge to embed the principles of Trauma Informed Care (TIC) into their systems; philosophy, and day-to-day working practices, and transform their organisations into Psychologically Informed Environments (PIE).
We deliver comprehensive, evidence-based coaching and training, tailored both to individuals and to those who support them; raising awareness of the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), complex trauma, adversity and toxic stress on wellbeing, and share effective strategies for healing and recovery.
We achieve this by a strengths-based, rather than deficits-based approach: - we acknowledge early life challenges and trauma, while focussing on personal strengths and solutions to move forward!
Our commitment to this ethos is central to all we do.
Our Mission….
Reset-21 CIC has been established, as a non-hierarchical organisation, to support, empower and better enable both trained practitioners - and also the existing ‘grass-roots’ workforce of individuals who have learnt from their own adverse early-life experiences, and resolved to support others who may have suffered similar challenging life experiences.
Bringing Trauma Informed Care to Life….
At Reset-21 CIC we recognise the difficulties that can exist in bringing knowledge gained through ‘stand-alone’ training into daily lived experience and practice. We are committed to delivering comprehensive and focussed training that is directly applicable to individual settings, combined with all the additional support necessary to bring about active implementation of learnt principles, ensuring effective trauma informed practice and care at both Organisational and individual levels to create sustainable Psychologically Informed Environments which promote lasting change and wellness.
Holistic Support…
‘Trauma Informed Care’ can only be maintained successfully within the context of the larger environment to which it is applied. The Reset-21 CIC approach extends beyond ‘one-off’ training sessions, to help ensure that practitioners, and all they work with, have the necessary support to bring about lasting change.
We endorse and work with practitioners to transform their organisations into ‘Psychologically Informed Environments’ (PIE) to bring about sustainable change and healing to those with most complex needs in society.
The PIE model has been proven to build and sustain positive, supportive and informed relationships between practitioners; peer support workers and volunteers that improve skills and confidence in engaging with people with multiple and complex needs.
The PIE model brings about positive and lasting impact on staff personal empowerment; resilience and capacity to work within the complex needs system.
Using a psychological framework provides vital tools to staff to better support their clients, and also provide themselves with greater reassurance and enhanced personal development.
It creates a ‘self-sustaining’ culture where learnt skills are cascaded between practitioners and recipients of care to inform lasting change and continuity of care.
This is the vision and mission of Reset-21 CIC.
Why Reset-21 CIC?….
The Reset-21 CIC Training Team are active 1 : 1 practitioners working daily with early life adversity and trauma, based in some of the most challenging areas of Kent. This means that our work is both empirically evidenced based, and also derived from daily lived experience.
Continuity of care is central to our working ethos, as we understand that there can be no ‘quick-fix’ with the experience of complex trauma, or in the implementation of purposeful trauma informed care and practice.
We are deeply committed both to those who experience the devastating effects of adverse childhood experiences and early life trauma, and to those Organisations and Practitioners who seek to implement this ethos into their daily working practice.
