Respond is a national charity that enables people with learning disabilities, autism or both who have experienced abuse, violence or trauma to live richer, more resilient lives.
They achieve this through a range of evidence-based trauma-informed services for children, young people, adults and professionals. These services include psychotherapy, advocacy, campaigning and other support that aim to both prevent abuse and equip individuals and their families to come to terms with their experiences and live more positive lives.
Additionally, they provide specialist training, supervision, reflective practice, professional development and consultancy services to equip agencies and providers to deliver trauma informed services within trauma informed team and organisation cultures.
