"How Trauma and Stress Shape the Brain and Our Health"
o Dr. Nathaniel Harnett of Harvard Medical School at Mclean Hospital researches contextual factors underlying demographic differences in stress-related disorders following trauma. He will introduce research on how neighborhood context and historical factors can account for brain-related risk and resilience to post traumatic stress disorder. For 4-H educators and volunteers, this lecture provides a foundation for understanding trauma-informed approaches and why some youth may respond to stress with heightened emotional or behavioral reactions.
