Jefferson Health - New Jersey Hosts FREE Childhood Trauma Awareness Program on May 9th
Thursday, April 26, 2018
VOORHEES, NJ (April 25, 2018) – Join Elementary School Counselor Diana Trasatti for a FREE program, “Healthy Ways to Talk to Your Kids About Their ‘New Normal’,” on Wednesday, May 9, at 6:30 p.m. at Jefferson Center at Voorhees (1099 White Horse Road, Voorhees, NJ) to learn about childhood trauma.
Children respond to trauma in many different ways. Some may have reactions very soon after the event; others may do fine for weeks or months, and then begin to show troubling behavior. Attendees will learn common signs, how to recognize problems and how to respond appropriately.
This free community wellness program is sponsored by Jefferson Health – New Jersey and is open to all community members. Light refreshments will be served.
