Recognizing & Responding to Childhood Trauma in the Primary Care Setting

One-third of children in the United States experience a potentially traumatic event by age 11, increasing their risk for traumatic stress, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and physical, mental and socioeconomic harms into adulthood.
