Abstract
Professionals serving sexual assault victims significantly impact their well-being, with inadequate care leading to retraumatization. This study broadens the scope of previous research by investigating the application of trauma-informed practices among various professional groups. Drawing on thematic analysis of qualitative interviews with professionals from two universities, the findings reveal a shared commitment to minimizing harm to survivors. However, the approach to trauma-informed care varies by service type. Advocates and health care professionals adopt a survivor-centered approach, while Title IX and law enforcement employ a constrained version. Understanding these distinctions is crucial for delivering effective support to survivors and establishing appropriate professional boundaries.

Violence and Victims is the evidence-based resource that informs clinical decisions, legal actions, and public policy. Now celebrating its 25th year, Violence and Victims is a peer-reviewed journal of theory, research, policy, and clinical practice in the area of interpersonal violence and victimization. It seeks to facilitate the exchange of information on this subject across such professional disciplines as psychology, sociology, criminology, law, medicine, nursing, psychiatry, and social work.
