Young Children and Trauma: Responses, Impacts, and Family Support

Originally aired Tuesday, January 24, 2023
3:00 pm – 4:00 pm EST | 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm CST | 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm MST

This webinar will consider the impacts of experiencing domestic violence and trauma on infancy and early childhood. Incorporating an accessible, culturally responsive, and trauma-informed (ACRTI) approach, together we will explore strategies to strengthen emotional safety, support healing, and facilitate connection by keeping both children’s needs and survivor’s needs in mind. This framework facilitates working with survivors who parent and their children within the context of their culture and caregiving.
