Resilience: The Biology of Stress & The Science of Hope
Movie Screening and Panel Discussion
Thursday, October 21, 2021
11:30am-1:30pm
The Common Man Inn and Spa, Plymouth, NH
Researchers have recently discovered a dangerous biological syndrome caused by abuse and neglect during childhood. As the documentary Resilience reveals, 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.
Panel Members include: Linda Douglas, M.S. Ed, a Trauma Informed Specialist for the NH Coalition Against Domestic and Sexual Violence and Gail Kaplan, LICSW, MLADC, a professional with over 30 years experience.
