My Identity Matters:
Why Trauma Informed Care is Needed Now More than Ever

School of Social Work at Simmons University

Many individuals have experienced not only violence and discrimination, but also live with symptoms of trauma and have an increased likelihood of developing health related problems as a consequence of this exposure. Physical violence, or threat of violence leads to trauma, which contributes to poorer health outcomes for those individuals who are impacted.
Dr. Bailey’s 3- hour presentation will explore the intersection of trauma, and racism that are experienced by individuals across the life span ; and will discuss the role that social workers and allies have in promoting equity and fairness in a multicultural environment; as well as the role that social workers must play in addressing racism and other forms of oppression.
