What is Sanctuary Trauma?

One of the biggest traumas the people I work with suffer from is the trauma they’ve experienced at the hands of a medical provider or someone with whom they reached out to get sanctuary or treatment. This is called Sanctuary Trauma. And it is a killer that I see of the people I serve. Sanctuary trauma hurts the people trying to care, and the people seeking care and support. I know that we can change the health system into a healing and caring system.
