July 2019: School Success Resource of the Month

This 5-minute video, Building Adult Capabilities to Improve Child Outcomes: A Theory of Change, is from the Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University.

It outlines the negative effects of toxic stress on young children and what adults can do to ameliorate those effects.

Consider watching the video as part of a staff meeting or other professional development opportunity. The easy-to-understand video is a great starting point for a conversation around toxic stress and trauma.
