Connecting the Dots: Historical Trauma, Toxic Stress, and Indigenous Communities

Connecting the Dots: Historical Trauma, Toxic Stress, and Indigenous Communities

Join us as we “Connect the Dots” in understanding how ongoing Historical Trauma and Toxic Stress not only directly impact our Indigenous Communities, but our broader society as well. We will explore the neuroscience and epigenetics behind toxic stress, touch on the current day implications, and find ways we can shift perspectives to better support all of our communities. The impact of colonization, historical trauma, intergenerational adversities, childhood trauma, ongoing racism and discriminatory practices continue to challenge us; it is only when we look holistically at what our society, communities, families and individuals need that we will be able to overcome these challenges together.  Our presenter is Linsey McMurrin.
