The impact of trauma can touch every part of our lives and can inform how we respond to relationships and to situations. But what is trauma? And what are the lasting effects of childhood trauma?

Together, we will explore the impact of trauma on the brain, the importance of connection, and the transformative power of relationships. Nancy and Susan will help to inform conversations on attunement and neuroplasticity. Join us as we seek to discover how to build community resilience and address the impacts of trauma across the lifespan.
