Funded Activity Summary

When a child is exposed to a traumatic event such as a car crash or the sudden loss of a loved one, caregivers and (emergency) professionals have a pivotal position to avert persistent stress reactions and promote wellbeing. However, there is very little in-depth knowledge about how they can best support children. This international project will contribute to tailored advice to caregivers and training for professionals.
