Welcome to The Role of Trauma on the Development of Executive Function

Trauma is a possible response to adversity. Adversity can be a single event or a context (e.g., poverty) that a child perceives as extremely frightening or threatening to their emotional and/or physical wellbeing. Adversity, especially early in life, can have lasting effects on multiple domains of development, including Executive Function. 

This 90-minute course is a brief introduction to the role of Trauma on Executive Function. By the end of the course, you will be able to define trauma, identify potential causes, and understand how trauma relates to the development of Executive Function.

You can choose to complete it in one or many sessions individually or as a group. Included in each module is a Reflect and Apply section to facilitate discussions.
