Institute Family, Stress, and trauma are both experiences that affect emotions, but they aren’t exactly the same. While they’re related, each has its own causes, effects, and timelines. Understanding the difference between stress and trauma is important for recognizing what kind of support or intervention is needed. It allows caregivers, educators, and providers to respond more effectively and helps make sure people get the right kind of care for what they’re experiencing.

The event brought together policymakers, community advocates, educators, and clinicians to discuss the mental health needs and services of K-12 students. We appreciate the attendance of all our allies, friends, and supporters.
