Question: I’m new to raising my grandchild and still learning about trauma. People keep saying it changes a child’s brain, but I don’t really understand what that means. What does trauma actually do to the brain, and how does that show up in behavior at home or school?

Resources:

• The Three Es: Understanding the Impacts of Trauma
• A Conversation with Dr. Bruce Perry About Trauma
• How Trauma Impacts a Child's Development
• Meeting Children Where They Are: The Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics
