A traumatic event is when you experience the threat of death or serious injury to yourself or others. Trauma can result from an incident such as an overdose or accident, or from repeated acts such as violence or abuse.
Reactions vary widely, but can include extreme fear, shock, helplessness, and physical symptoms – all of which can significantly impact the health of individuals.
That's why it's important not only to support people, but also to create supportive environments that ensure individuals feel safe.
These materials have been provided by MindWise's Trauma Center experts after decades of experience responding to and supporting communities after traumatic events.
