Join Human Options in this important conversation with Dr. Nadine Burke Harris on the impact of childhood trauma.
What is the impact of childhood trauma? Childhood trauma may shorten a life by almost 20 years. Trauma from growing up with household dysfunction or emotional, physical, or sexual abuse significantly increases the likelihood of chronic health conditions in adulthood like diabetes, heart disease, depression, and substance abuse.
Dr. Nadine Burke Harris is an award-winning physician, researcher and advocate dedicated to changing the way our society responds to one of the most serious, expensive, and widespread public health crises of our time: childhood trauma. She was appointed as California’s first-ever Surgeon General by Governor Gavin Newsom in January 2019.
