Stage: Active Aging activities in place
The Center on Holocaust Survivor Care and Institute on Aging and Trauma (The Center) advances person-centered, trauma-informed (PCTI) care for Holocaust survivors, older adults with a history of trauma, and their family caregivers.
The PCTI approach infuses knowledge about trauma into organization programs, policies, and procedures to promote the safety and well-being of clients, visitors, staff, and volunteers.
