"Trauma permeates all aspects of life; it echoes through the generations, across families, communities, institutions, cultures, and societies, and it does so in very complex ways. Trauma can impact our genes, white blood cells, heart, gut, lungs, and brain, our thinking, feeling, behaving, parenting, teaching, coaching, consuming, creating, prescribing, arresting, sentencing."
