Earlier this month, the state Assembly passed a resolution authored by state Sen. Julie Lassa, D-Stevens Point, that recognizes the profound importance of early brain development to a child’s future success. The state Senate had passed the same “toxic stress” resolution last fall. In both houses, it passed unanimously.
A resolution is good; the state Legislature, to a person, is now on the record accepting the destructive effects of toxic stress and promising to “note the role of early intervention and investment in early childhood years.”
Wisconsin legislature recognizes that when stress becomes toxic, children suffer the most
