Regional Coalition: Aligning Community Systems for Resilience Initiative (ACSRI)
Mission & Broad Goals
The Aligning Community Systems for Resilience Initiative (ACSRI) is a multi-dimensional strategy designed to engage all sectors of the Clayton County community in the development of a trauma responsive community ecosystem.
A trauma responsive community is defined as a community in which:
-
All community stakeholders are aware of the impact of ACEs on health and wellness
-
Trauma Informed Care is a normative practice in all sectors
-
Evidence based/evidence informed ACE prevention strategies are embedded within the community and in all sectors
-
Responsive systems of support grounded in culturally responsive developmental relationships exist (and are easily accessed) throughout the community
-
Voice and agency are given to community stakeholders who model resilience and "overcoming"
-
Sector leaders and grassroots stakeholders work collaboratively to identify tailored prevention and remediation strategies that respond to the needs of their community as they evolve
