The CARE TA Center Team is a core group of staff members working in collaboration with project partners. We are excited and grateful for the opportunity to support California in this critical work.
Collectively, Team members have expertise in trauma-informed services to support diverse populations, such as people with serious and persistent mental illness, people experiencing homelessness, youth and young adults of transition age, and people with justice system involvement.
Across California and national TA Centers, Team members have worked with many state, county, and local agencies; nonprofits; schools; health care agencies; and other stakeholders in the care continuum.
We are committed to learning the needs of the field and translating these needs into responsive support through trainings, technical assistance, and resources.
