“…This is important, as evidenced by this observation from a young person living in residential care: "In group homes, you've got staff that come in for eight hours, get their paycheque, go home and don't care what happens to you for the rest of the day, until tomorrow, when they have to deal with you again" [37], p. 29. The idea that kindness must prevail across all relationships amongst service providers involved in residential care is well captured by the Sanctuary Model, itself an evidence-based practice ubiquitous across North American human services [49][50][51].…”

Quality is a central topic in contemporary discussions about residential care, and specifically about group or congregate care. Such care settings have been contested in recent years specifically resulting from anecdotal evidence that quality is lacking. To this end, the response has focused on the development of quality indicators and standards. In this essay, the author argues that, although such approaches are necessary and have helped to embed evidence-based practices in residential care settings, they are not easily translated into everyday practice. Quality care must mean more than frameworks for care that are governed by professional system designs. Quality care also must include the experiences of young people living life in these settings. To this end, to help with the translation of quality care standards for residential care, the essay presents four core principles that, on the one hand, are familiar and easily translatable for youth workers and social workers in these settings, and on the other hand, honour and are congruent with core elements of almost all evidence-based practice approaches.

“…Core practices (e.g., community meetings, problemsolving processes, safety plans, and self-care plans) are implemented and monitored through fidelity checklists. To incorporate the Sanctuary Model into practice, organizations must be amenable to organizational and behavioral change, and commit to providing resources for hands-on support and streamlined, practice-based, refresher training (Galvin et al, 2021).…”

Exposure to trauma is considered a critical factor in explaining the onset and maintenance of youth aggression. Integrating trauma-responsive practices into the operations of youth-serving systems improves incarcerated youths’ adaptive functioning and ability to succeed when back in society and serves as an opportunity to reduce the likelihood of future aggression. The Sanctuary Model is an approach to organizational culture change based on the structural development of processes that facilitate trauma-responsiveness within a therapeutic community environment. The Colorado Division of Youth Services adopted the Sanctuary Model as part of the primary foundational organizational model of care in 2014. This conceptual article first describes the Sanctuary Model and discusses its implementation using Bowen and Murshid’s (2016) social justice and trauma-informed social policy framework. The article provides an analysis that leads to seven recommendations that will assist organizational leaders in justifying the model at every stage of implementation, including the ongoing sustainability of the practices.
