As the holiday season is here, we wanted to touch on what trauma means for children - and even adults - during this time of year. Cory Matthew, the Program Director from Middle Earth in Somerset County, NJ, talked to us about being more trauma informed. Plus, what is the best way for us to reach children, especially during this time of year when families get together and when there are people celebrating? How can we best reach these kids?
