Community Violence and Trauma: Supporting Youth and Building Resilience
Brings together experts on the impact of community violence on youth and families. This series highlights best practices for prevention and trauma intervention for youth affected by community violence, and features NCTSN members representing viewpoints from service providers, to researchers, to youth and family members.
Join us for the next webinar in the series: The Many Faces of Community Violence
For many years, the term Community Violence has given rise to images of city streets and overcrowded communities of color. These images are often perpetuated by the media and supported by a context of historical oppression and systemic racism. This webinar expands the conversation to include those in rural communities who are seeing an increase in Community Violence without the benefit of a service structure, appropriate training or the necessary partnerships to provide optimal care for families. Providers from Chicago to West Virginia will present the common elements and distinct challenges of working in different environments while highlighting common solutions to address Community Violence that have emerged in both urban and rural communities.
