LEGACY OF CHILDHOOD TRAUMA: Not Always Who They Seem DVD

This eye-opening program in three parts challenges those who work with troubled teens to take another look at the youth with whom they are working - to see them not as "troublemakers" or "lost causes" - but as young people who have been torn by childhood trauma and have had no appropriate avenue of expression. They have lived daily with violence, addiction, homelessness, prostitution, depression, and rage. Unique as their stories are, they are also quite similar in that for all four of these young people, being a child was dangerous. These are young people in desperate need of support and understanding.
Also includes interviews with health professionals, counselors and psychologists working with young people in foster care, group homes, youth detention facilities, day treatment, special education and outreach. Offers a realistic picture of the challenges and rewards inherent in working with these teens and provide a model for the process of healing and growth.
