Au Canada, la majorité (76 %) de la population vivra un événement traumatique au cours de sa vie. Même si la plupart des personnes arrivent à s’adapter à un tel événement, près de 10 % développeront un trouble de stress post-traumatique (TSPT).

Together, families banded together to combat blatant racism and rise above the negative impact of the Ku Klux Klan. His early home training fostered a love of God, Country, and Fami...
