How well do you know your child? More importantly, how could you help them navigate through a traumatic series of events? Adults often don't know where to begin when soothing a child's fears after troublesome world events or from a crisis within the home.

If you're a parent, guardian, educator, coach, or advocate for a child, you have numerous opportunities to guide them in their development.

Your role plays a crucial part in a child's development, even if your advocacy and presence in a child's life feel small to you.

When a caregiver gains more insight into the importance of trauma sensitivity, they provide a child with the opportunity for resilience and success.
