Building a Resilient Community
We are only just beginning to understand the long term impacts of adverse childhood trauma and how it can pervade into every aspect of an individual’s life. The one factor that has been shown to lessen the impact of childhood trauma is resiliency; but how do we make children more resilient and what can we do as individuals to help those most in need of support? Jude Wood, Executive Director of the Boys and Girls Club of Lake Tahoe, teaches us about the five protective factors and what we can all do to build a more resilient community.
This talk was filmed and uploaded by the volunteers who organized this TEDx event; speakers and topics are selected independently of TED.
