Trauma, Masculinity, and Foster Care

We go shoulder to shoulder with Dr. Adam McCormick to explore what relational repair can look like for boys and young men in foster care who have learned that vulnerability may not be safe. Trauma-informed care requires more than better techniques. It begins with understanding what may be beneath behavior: the stories youth carry, the survival strategies they have developed, the ways trauma and masculinity can intersect, and the emotional disconnection that can follow.
