• First Stage Trauma Treatment for Women: A Gender-C

Many women who seek help from front-line services have experienced past violence and trauma. Often they do not recognize that many of their difficulties might be associated with responses to complex post traumatic stress. Bridging Responses is a resource for front-line staff who work with women — in health care, literacy, corrections, housing and community services. This book offers information and tools to help recognize responses to post-traumatic stress in women’s lives, and to establish a level of confidence that encourages women who have survived abuse and violence to consider referrals to appropriate services or resources.
