Summary
Third-sector staff working to prevent or support those affected by community violence are regularly exposed to high-levels of trauma, limited funding, and heavy workloads. Many hold significant responsibility with limited training, support or clinical supervision. Rates of staff turnover are high. There is an evidence gap about the extent of trauma and moral injury in this population and how staff can be better supported. This project will explore the experiences of staff in this sector and codesign a tailored package of support. This work will improve staff wellbeing, reduce turnover, and improve outcomes for staff and the communities they serve.
