The Arukah Project has developed a groundbreaking model of support which is rooted in understanding how trauma and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) can lead to high-risk behaviours and make it difficult for individuals to engage with essential services.
Arukah’s model focuses on developing emotional competence to empower individuals to engage with vital services, creating a new approach to healing and recovery. They integrate Trauma-Informed Care, which emphasizes safety, trust, empowerment, collaboration, and cultural sensitivity. Their work is particularly impactful within the criminal justice system, helping individuals break free from cycles of incarceration and addiction by addressing the root causes of their behaviour.
Additionally, they support organisations in becoming trauma-informed, promoting employee well-being and resilience, which leads to better productivity and morale.
