Trauma-informed archives community of practice

About

The Trauma-Informed Archives Community of Practice was established in 2021 due to the need to create an informal network of people around the topics of trauma-informed archival practice, vicarious or secondary trauma in archives, emotional responses to records and emotional labour of archivists. The Community of Practice holds quarterly meetings and provides a space for people to share resources and get support.

Who

While the focus is on trauma-informed archives, more than archivists are welcome! Members include curators, librarians, historians and others working in the general GLAM (galleries, libraries, archives and museums) sector.
