About

This video discusses trauma-informed care for children’s mental and behavioral health. It describes how understanding trauma can help caregivers support kids better. Trauma-informed care focuses on recognizing signs of trauma in children and responding with empathy, patience, and appropriate strategies to help them heal. This video discusses why patients may not endorse a history of trauma, why providers might not screen for trauma, and what to do if a patient has a positive screen for trauma. This approach aims to create safe environments where children feel understood and supported as they work through their experiences.
