To many people, trauma is something that happens to soldiers and refugees, far away and out of sight. But in fact, trauma is the single greatest threat to public health and well-being that America has ever seen.

As humans, we are exposed to a horde of trauma, from physical, sexual, and emotional abuse, to neglect, accidents, and the list can go on and on. And while the naked eye can see the immediate effects of that trauma, it is usually the long-term trauma we carry that bogs us down and infects every aspect of our lives, whether we are aware of it or not.
