Abstract
Description
In order to more effectively help children cope with and recover from their exposure to trauma, it is imperative that judges, lawyers and CASA volunteers learn to be more sensitive to the traumatic experiences of children and adolescents who present in court and be provided training and resource information about ways that they may obtain trauma informed assessments and services.
