dc.description.abstractThis article discusses a new initiative in a fostering team within Tusla–Child and Family Agency that is using a trauma-informed lens. The initiative is part of an area-wide project (in Dublin South Central) that is endeavouring to embed trauma-informed practices in service provision, through the TARA practice model (University College Cork, 2023). The Dublin South Central area is one of 17 areas of the child welfare agency. TARA supports the integration of trauma-informed practices into current practices. The ‘T’ in the acronym denotes trauma, ‘A’ is for Attachment, ‘R’ is for resilience and ‘A’ stands for into-Action. TARA supports recognising, acknowledging, and identifying ways to support children and families who have been exposed to traumatic experiences whilst also bearing in mind the impact of this work on the practitioner.en
