From health care to education to criminal justice, agencies and organizations throughout Wisconsin are shifting to adopt trauma-informed care – a strength and empowerment-based approach to mental health treatment that promotes empathy over punishment and acknowledges the role of adverse childhood experiences in brain development.

Geyer spoke with WORT-FM producer Dylan Brogan about the story for the station’s evening news program, In Our Backyard. Listen to the interview here:
