JBS International, Inc. and the Georgetown University National Technical Assistance Center for Children’s Mental Health have created a new free web-based tool to support organizations, state and local decision-makers, administrators, providers, parents, and youth and family advocates to become more trauma informed. The tool includes video interviews on lessons learned, educational issue briefs, and key resources and links that are updated monthly to keep up with new developments in the field. The videos provide insights from providers, developers of evidence-based treatments, and administrations but also give a voice to children and families, who share their experiences. The goal of the tool is to help foster healing and build resilience for individuals and communities across the country. The tool is freely available at two locations:
