Trauma shapes the mind,

The brain learns to grow,

Childhood scars run deep,

Judgment fades away,

Interdependence,

In this episode of Our Community, Candice Michel talks with Diana Carter, Executive Director of Brookings CORE Response, about the profound impact of trauma on the brain and the importance of trauma-informed care. Carter explains how trauma alters brain function, particularly in areas like emotional regulation, trust, and problem-solving, and highlights the role of neuroplasticity in healing. She emphasizes that trauma-informed approaches prioritize understanding, connection, and support over critical judgment, meeting individuals where they are to foster recovery. Discussing how adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) influence long-term health and behavior, Carter underscores the necessity of community, relationships, and interdependence in helping individuals heal and thrive. The episode challenges societal biases about addiction and independence, advocating for compassion and connection as the foundation for true recovery.
