From California Children's Trust, July 10, 2020
California Children’s Trust, and its partners, are making the case for policies and practices acknowledging the “Persistent Traumatic Stress Environment” (framing provided by Dr. Shawn Ginwright) our children and youth are experiencing. We invite you to listen to these recordings, and hear from behavioral health, education and social justice leaders with both inspirational messages and concrete proposals that reimagine our children’s behavioral health system.
If you weren’t able to join us for two recent webinars, we invite you to learn more.
