The Child Development and Trauma Guide has been developed to assist practitioners to understand typical developmental pathways of children and recognise indicators of trauma at different ages and stages.
Importantly, the resource offers practical, age appropriate advice as to the needs of children, parents and carers when trauma has occurred, and ways in which children and families can be assisted in healing and recovery.
The Guide covers the following age groups:
- 0 to 12 months
- 12 months to 3 years
- 3 to 5 years
- 7 to 9 years
- 9 to 12 years
- 12 to 18 years.
