About One Small Thing
One Small Thing is striving for positive change across the justice system by implementing small things in a big way.
We provide gender responsive, trauma-informed programmes within the prison and community sectors that consider the individual caught in a cycle of crime and incarceration, with the aim of humanising their experiences. We want to shift the voice of blame and judgement and the ‘what’s wrong with them?’ line of questioning to a kinder, respectful and healing approach that asks, ‘What has happened to them?
Our vision is a justice system that recognises, understands, and responds to trauma.
Our mission is to redesign the justice system for women and their children by:
· Redesign the way the justice system responds to women and their children in a way that can be replicated and scaled nationally.
· Educate people within the justice system on the impact of trauma and draw on our knowledge and expertise to help build capacity within organisations.
· Influence politicians and policy makers to encourage culture change across the justice system and the people who work within it.
Our name reflects the value of those small things – empathy, compassion, respect – and their combined power to make a big difference to the individual - and to society as a whole.
Our Values
One Small Thing is built on six core values of trauma-informed care that underpin the way we work.
