Trauma-informed care is based on the understanding that:

- A significant number of people living with mental health conditions have experienced trauma in their lives
- trauma may be a factor for people in distress
- the impact of trauma may be lifelong and
- trauma can impact the person, their emotions and relationships with others.

At We Core, our trauma-informed services are based on the following principles:

- Safety – emotional as well as physical e.g. a welcoming environment
- Trust – being sensitive to our participants’ needs
- Choice – providing opportunity for choice
- Collaboration – communicating to our participants a sense of ‘doing with’ rather than ‘doing to’
- Empowerment of our participants
- Respect for Diversity in all its forms

 We Care NSW acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Owners and Custodians of this country on which we work and live, especially the Wonnarua, Awabakal, Worimi and Bundjalung Nations. We value their strong connection with land and water from which their social, spiritual, custom, culture, and community stem. We pay our respects to them and Elders past, present and emerging.
