Trauma-informed care in non-monogamy isn't "regular trauma work plus extra partners." It's a deeply intentional practice that integrates safety, consent, and cultural humility with the real-world complexity of polycules, metamours, co-parents, and chosen family. Research and lived experience both show that with the right scaffolding, non-monogamy can support healing instead of re-enacting old wounds.

With approximately 4-5% of Americans currently engaged in NM relationships and 21% of Americans having participated in a non-monogamous relationship at some point in their life,  the time for change is now.
