MANKIND'S CONQUEST OF SINGULARITY MIGHT SHED SOME LIGHT ON OUR FUTURE OR PERHAPS IT WILL BE THE ANNIHILATION OF OUR SPECIES. FATE SHALL SEE.

From Trauma to Resiliency

From Trauma to Resiliency integrates research and practice of trauma-informed care, reviewing the neuroscience of trauma and highlighting relationship-based interventions for diverse populations that have faced multiple traumas. Chapters explore the experiences of oppressed groups that include survivors of abuse, war, poverty, Indigenous youth, Middle Eastern refugee mothers, individuals who identify as sexual and/or gender minorities (SGM), and children and youth involved in child welfare, foster care, and juvenile justice systems.
