Adolescents and children exposed to trauma and violence may exhibit moderate to severe psycho-social-emotional health problems. In collaboration with the Michigan Department of Community Health, as well as, with other Partners, Volunteers, Collaborating Agencies and Organizations, The Safer Tomorrows: Injury Prevention and Violence Reduction Project is identifying adolescents and children who are at-risk and who may or may not be at-risk for exposure to trauma and violence in their lives. The purpose of the evidence-based intervention/program is to assist this population of adolescents, children and families by identifying services and programs to enhance their overall health and well-being. Similarly, we plan to proactively promote the healing and restoration of this population. One of the proposed significant outcomes is The Safer Tomorrows Project Case Management Research Practice Model. This model consists of a structured format which addresses the issues of (1) safety nets for children and adolescents who may need immediate, acute, short or long term multidisciplinary health care services, (2) access to services, resources, and programs, (3) coordination of services with local multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary community-based professionals and volunteers, and (4) global health education around the themes of injury prevention, violence reduction, and healthy peaceful conflict evidence-based resolutions or strategies. Multidisciplinary health and interdisciplinary professionals or providers and volunteers are called to help promote the healing and restoration of adolescents, children and families who are at-risk and who may or may not be at-risk for exposure to trauma and violence. The Safer Tomorrows: Injury Prevention and Violence Reduction Project is trying to confront and eliminate these disparate social justice, economic, and health care issues for this population.
