After the Fight: Understanding the Developmental Consequences of Interpersonal Trauma and Creating Systems that Support Healing
Research shows that children aged birth to five are highly vulnerable to exposure to interpersonal trauma, and trauma exposure at an early age can have long-term consequence for development. Trauma affects children’s sense of safety, their neurobiological development, their capacity to form relationships, and their beliefs about themselves, others, and the world. Yet within popular culture and within our field, people often ask “Do young children remember?” and “Won’t they just forget?” Through metaphor, story, and rich clinical vignettes this presentation will help participants understand that the questions should be rephrased from “Do they remember?”” to “What have they learned?” and from “Won’t they just forget” to “How will we help them learn something new?” To support new learning and the development of trauma-responsive systems, the presentation includes core
trauma concepts from the National Child Traumatic Stress Network and key lessons learned from over 20 years of work with young children and families who have experienced family violence.
- Participants will be able to identify at least 2 core trauma concepts and understand how they apply to children under age 6.
- Participants will be able to name at least four different domains of functioning that are impacted by trauma.
- Participants will be able to share a definition of trauma that incorporates a focus on intergenerational and historical trauma.
