Description:
ARC, Attachment, Self-Regulation, and Competency, provides a conceptual framework and core principles of intervention for working with youth who have experienced multiple and/or prolonged traumas, a key characteristic of many youth experiencing homelessness. The Hollywood Homeless Youth Partnership (HHYP), a collaboration of 8 agencies, selected this framework from available trauma treatment approaches because it provides a flexible model of intervention that is developmentally appropriate and relevant for addressing a continuum of trauma exposures. The ARC framework has been a useful tool to understand homeless youth, guide our interventions, and inform agency policies and practices. (Authors)
