The Calgary John Howard Society is part of the Trauma-Informed Care Collective, a network of social service agencies in Calgary, Alberta, committed to promoting trauma-informed care throughout people-serving organizations including government agencies, community groups and more.
Together, the collective has considerable experience and expertise in working with vulnerable individuals and families. Through our work, we know that systems which implement trauma-informed care enable those living with the impacts of poverty to build resiliency and move towards self-sufficiency, reducing strain on taxpayer-funded systems.
