What’s at Stake?

When a child experiencs a traumatic event, it can turn their world (and your world) upside down. It’s difficult to navigate fear, danger, or a violent event that has had an impact on your child. 

Events that cause fear or trauma in children or teens harms the feeling of safety they once experienced, and rebuilding that sense of safety can be a difficult thing. As the parent or guardian, you may not have the experience or tools needed to rebuild that sense of safety in a child that’s experienced trauma. 

That’s where we come in.
