PRESENTERS: Gwenden Dueker (Faculty) and Zoe Schultz (Undergraduate Student)

After introducing the concept of trauma and how early trauma is related to later outcomes, this presentation will focus on the concept of resilience and how individuals and communities can support folks with a history of trauma to have positive adult outcomes.  Participants can expect to learn a little bit about neuroscience and a lot about human development.  Participants will also have the opportunity to engage in some resilience building practices (e.g., mindfulness and/or gratitude writing). Lecture and Discussion
