Really good to hear @profsiobhanon @policyni Conference highlight the need to move beyond our crude understanding of #TraumaInformedApproaches understanding triggers, leadership, regulation, psychological safety, trust #EveryInteractionMatters #Power #Respect #Equality #PolicyNI

In my talk on the impact of #trauma I reference Bessel van der Kolk & Janina Fisher. Great to hear @profsiobhanon discuss #traumainformedapproaches in a local context with similar themes I discuss from a #livedexperience perspective. Find her seminar at https://youtu.be/cwDi0Q34g6M

The world is polarized with ferocious arguments about social issues, but we should be able to agree on what doesn’t work: #neglect and #underinvestment in #children.

What we know works is #earlychildhoodeducation, #jobretraining, #drugtreatment all #traumainformedapproaches.
