This is the third in a trilogy of books that chronicle the
revolutionary changes in our mental health and human service
delivery systems that have conspired to disempower staff and hinder
client recovery. Creating Sanctuary documented the evolution of The
Sanctuary Model therapeutic approach as an antidote to the personal
and social trauma that clients bring to child welfare agencies,
psychiatric hospitals, and residential facilities. Destroying
Sanctuary details the destructive role of organizational trauma in
the nation's systems of care. Restoring Sanctuary is a
user-friendly manual for organizational change that addresses the
deep roots of toxic stress and illustrates how to transform a
dysfunctional human service system into a safe, secure,
trauma-informed environment. At its heart, The Sanctuary Model
represents an organizational value system that is committed to
seven principles, which serve as anchors for decision making at all
levels: non-violence, emotional intelligence, social learning,
democracy, open communication, social responsibility, and growth
and change. The Sanctuary Model is not a clinical intervention;
rather, it is a method for creating an organizational culture that
can more effectively provide a cohesive context within which
healing from psychological and socially derived forms of traumatic
experience can be addressed. Chapters are organized around the
seven Sanctuary commitments, providing step-by-step, realistic
guidance on creating and sustaining fundamental change. "Restoring
Sanctuary" is a roadmap to recovery for our nation's systems of
care. It explores the notion that organizations are living systems
themselves and as such they manifest various degrees of health and
dysfunction, analogous to those of individuals. Becoming a truly
trauma-informed system therefore requires a process of
reconstitution within helping organizations, top to bottom. A
system cannot be truly trauma-informed unless the system can create
and sustain a process of understanding itself.
