The Belonging Model Practitioner Toolkit — Individual Licence

A practical, downloadable workbook for health, social care and community practitioners ready to embed trauma-informed, culturally humble connection into their everyday practice. Based on StorytellThem's original Belonging Model framework.

FULL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Bring Belonging into your practice — starting tomorrow.

The Belonging Model was developed directly through community practice, co-production and lived experience engagement. It represents learning earned through years of showing up, listening deeply and working alongside the communities and practitioners we serve. Built on the original Belonging Model framework, this toolkit translates three powerful layers: Safety & Humility, Flexible Engagement & Storytelling, and Belonging, into practical tools you can use in your very next session.

What's inside:

✦ The Belonging Model Illustrated Overview — clear explanation of all three layers with practitioner notes

✦ Self-Assessment Tool — 15 reflective questions to map where your practice currently sits, with a scoring guide

✦ Safety & Humility Audit — a printable checklist covering your environment, language, power dynamics and trauma-informed practice

✦ 8 Storytelling Activity Cards — ready-to-use creative engagement activities adaptable for groups, 1:1 work, face-to-face and digital settings

✦ Belonging Action Plan Template — a one-page tool to move from reflection to action with measurable outcomes

✦ Case Studies & Reflection Journal — real-world examples plus journaling prompts to document your own practice

✦ References & Further Reading — academic foundations across trauma-informed care, cultural humility, creative health, social prescribing, belonging science, narrative health and co-production
