‘Launch Together’ highlights Early Childhood Trauma Prevention pilot for rural areas
“The more adversity you have, the worse the outcomes can be, and that includes earning potential, maintaining relationships, jobs … we’re talking about adverse starts that can take 20 years off a child’s life and the trauma can be inter-generational. Toxic stress is just that – it can be financial, the family environment, it can be addictions, long-term postpartum depression, all contribute to toxic stress. Toxic stress changes the brain.”
