Homeward Trust would like to invite you to a screening of the documentary Paper Tigers.

 Paper Tigers takes root at the crossroads of at-risk teens and trauma informed care. Set within and around the campus of Lincoln Alternative High School in the rural community of Walla Walla, Washington, Paper Tigers asks the following questions: What does it mean to be a trauma-informed school? Against the harsh reality of truancy, poor grades, emotional pain, and physical violence, answers begin to emerge. The answers do not come easily nor can one simply deduce a one-size-sits-all solution to a trauma-informed education.

This documentary provides a valuable narrative on trauma-informed care and can be translated into work being done throughout the Housing First Program.
