Resilience Documentary Screening & Panel

GA Conference on Child Abuse and Neglect

The documentary Resilience reveals  the consequential outcomes of adverse childhood experiences and actions to prevent and mitigate trauma.

Virtual Resilience Screening1pm- Resilience Screening2pm- Expert Panel DiscussionThe documentary Resilience reveals how toxic stress can trigger hormones that wreak havoc on the brains and bodies of children, putting them at a greater risk for disease, homelessness, prison time, and early death. While the broader impacts of poverty worsen the risk, no segment of society is immune. Resilience, however, also chronicles the dawn of a movement that is determined to fight back. Trailblazers in pediatrics, education, and social welfare are using cutting-edge science and field-tested therapies to protect children from the insidious effects of toxic stress—and the dark legacy of a childhood that no child would choose.Hosted by <a href="https://abuse.publichealth.gsu.edu/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Prevent Child Abuse Georgia</a> along with the <a href="https://dfcs.georgia.gov/services/prevention-and-community-support-section" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Prevention and Community Support Section </a>of DFCS and the<a href="https://www.civilandhumanrights.org/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"> National Center for Civil and Human Rights</a>.
