When it comes to healing trauma, gender matters. Traumatic
experiences do not discriminate based on gender, race, ethnicity, or
socioeconomics. Trauma impacts the brain similarly, no matter the person.
What is different is how a person approaches and responds to services. A
trauma-informed approach recognizes the importance of being gender responsive
and provides an array of services that supports gender and cultural
differences.
Join Cheryl Sharp, MSW, ALWF, Senior Advisor for Trauma-informed
Services at the National Council for Behavioral Health, and Dan Griffin, MA, of
Griffin Recovery Enterprises, Inc. to explore the importance of understanding
gender’s role in trauma healing and recovery whether in addictions, mental
health, or primary care. Cheryl Sharp’s work in trauma-informed care
implementation has helped hundreds of organizations nationwide transform their
programs. Dan Griffin is the author of A Man's Way through Relationships, the
first trauma-informed book focused solely on helping men navigate the
challenges of creating healthy and intimate relationships. He is also author of
A Man’s Way Through the Twelve Steps (Hazelden), the first trauma-informed book
taking a holistic look at men’s experience of recovery from addictions.
