Syrian Children in a state of Toxic Stress

Elizabeth Najmabadi 3/9/173:51 PM

An article posted by BBC News captures what the children of Syria are experiencing and how many of these children don't know anything but war. This is a huge public health concern that could lead to irreversible damage to an entire generation of children.

Save the Children shares, "Millions of Syrian Children could be living in a state of "Toxic Stress" due to prolonged exposure to the horrors of war."

I have attached the Report, Invisible Wounds produced by Save the Children if you're interested in reading their findings.

Thank you Kate Jenkins for bringing this important article to our attention.
