Reading Hospital is partnering with YWCA
TriCounty Area to provide Trauma 101:
An Overview of Trauma-Informed Care.
Research underscores that 67 percent of the
population has encountered at least one Adverse
Childhood Experience (ACE). These experiences,
rooted in trauma, cast a shadow of potential toxic
physical, mental, and social repercussions across a
lifetime. As a society and as individuals, it is
imperative that we enhance our awareness and
readiness to both prevent and address the
enduring effects of childhood adversities.
Engage in an immersive multimedia workshop where
professionals collaborate to construct a vivid mental
tapestry, fostering an understanding of the intricate
dynamics of trauma and its aftermath. Trauma 101
presents enlightening revelations, delving into the
mechanics of the brain, offering a detailed expedition
into comprehending ACEs, and establishing the vital
links between ACEs associated with later-life health
concerns, the Realm of ACEs, brain development, and
behavior. Traverse the realms of healthy brain
development and witness how trauma curbs growth,
thereby influencing belief and behavioral systems.
