Ways to Encourage Lasting Resilience Throughout Your Community

Harmful and distressing events can impact individuals, families, and communities as a whole. The resulting emotional, psychological, or physical responses are known as “trauma.” Many experiences can lead to this, including violence, loss, natural disasters, neglect, or abuse.

Trauma can affect anyone, in any community. Likewise, everyone is capable of helping others overcome trauma. Our easy-to-access resources can help you build and strengthen resilience in your community. These books, videos, websites, and documents share how trauma affects the mind and body, and show how you can help others through it.
