Using a Trauma-Sensitive Lens to Support Children with Diverse Experiences
Cummings, Katrina P.; Swindell, Jami
Young Exceptional Children, v22 n3 p139-149 Sep 2019
The impact of trauma among young children is gaining attention. About one in four children experience potentially traumatic events before their third birthday. The rate of trauma among children with disabilities is unclear; however, evidence suggests that the rate of abuse and neglect is higher for individuals with disabilities than for those without disabilities. Recently, the Division for Early Childhood (2016) released a position statement on child maltreatment that highlights the need for effective supports for children who experience trauma and their families. To address this need, this article highlights signs of trauma during early childhood years and strategies that teachers can embed in the classroom environment that might be useful for children who have experienced traumatic events.
