STARS+TAC AUDIT PORTAL
”Trauma-Aware Certification & Auditing for Veterans, Clinics, and Organizations.”
Upload Your Documents for Trauma-Aware Review
We’ll examine your materials through the STARS+TAC lens — designed to protect and support those affected by trauma. Whether you’re submitting claims, policies, or training content, this is the first step toward clarity, safety, and change.
What Is STARS+TAC?
STARS+TAC stands for Standards for Trauma-Aware Response Systems + Training, Auditing, and Certification. It’s a trauma-informed protocol that helps organizations improve their forms, policies, and training before they cause harm — not after.
How the STARS+TAC Audit Works
Our process goes beyond spelling checks or formatting. We examine the emotional impact of your materials — not just the information. Each document is reviewed through trauma-aware layers designed to prevent harm before it happens.
“It’s a Simple 4-Step Process“
Step 1 Upload Your Document
Submit any policy, form, script, or training material using our secure portal
Step 2 Trauma-Aware Screening Begins
With the help of our specialty trained AI Assistant, We scan for tone, triggers, formatting risks, and power dynamics — not just typos.
Step 3 Lived-Experience Human Review
A trained reviewer checks what the system might miss — because care can't be automated.
Step 4 You Receive an Audit Summary
Your fixpack includes red flags, rewording tips, and options for next steps — trauma-aware, not punitive.
