We know that stress and trauma uniquely affects children. But we also know that intervening early can help reduce the associated adverse health outcomes — and that a strong caregiver/child relationship is especially powerful at buffering the effects of stress. Dr. Heather Forkey, professor of pediatrics and the vice chair of pediatrics at UMass Chan Medical School and division director of the Foster Children Evaluation Service at UMass Memorial Children's Medical Center joins us to help us understand what trauma and stress does to children and how we can help address it.
