Trauma-informed Resources
Research shows that trauma can damage a child’s ability to learn, form relationships and function in society. Children who have been traumatized may experience depression, anxiety, withdrawal, difficulty eating and sleeping, emotional upset and behavioural changes. They often have difficulties at school, and may be fearful or aggressive when dealing with adults or other children.
Resources detailing research on the effects of trauma on children and some of the treatments used, have been categorized for your ease of reference.
