Abstract

Resilient communities need to help build the resilience of their most vulnerable members. Organizations providing support services are integral to ensuring all members of a community have the opportunity to thrive. This literature review examines the role of trauma-informed design (TID) in building resilient communities, drawing on work on the Hope Street project in the UK (onesmallthing.org.uk/hopestreet). Furthermore it develops a trans-disciplinary framework aimed at harmonizing understandings of TID as it is seen from different perspectives, namely, criminology and architecture. The paper concludes with commentary on the potential significance of TID to notions of resilient communities and, by extension, resilient cities.
