About

The video describes how traumatic separation and grief affect young people aged 7 and older. It describes the importance of understanding cultural backgrounds when helping these youth. The article explains that socio-cultural responsive interventions can support their healing process. These interventions consider each child's unique cultural identity, family, and community influences. By doing so, caregivers and professionals can better address the needs of traumatized youth in a way that respects their background and promotes positive development.
