This document discusses the key principles of trauma-informed care (TIC) and how a solution-focused approach can be used to implement each principle. The six TIC principles are safety, trustworthiness, choice, collaboration, empowerment, and shift of perspective. For each principle, the document provides examples of solution-focused questions and techniques, such as scaling questions, miracle questions, and exception finding, that child welfare workers can use to respectfully engage with families and help facilitate realistic solutions in a collaborative manner focused on strengths rather than problems.
