The Safeguarding Board for Northern Ireland (SBNI) has been funded through the Early Intervention Transformation Programme (EITP) to deliver ACE Awareness and Trauma Informed Practice Training across health, social care, education, justice and the community/voluntary sector in Northern Ireland. As part of this roll out we will focus on system change to enable organisations to strategically become trauma informed.
