The Trauma Therapist Project (Intermediate-Advanced)

Daniel Goya ·

This is a fascinating research piece from the American Journal of Public Health that draws the connection between certain risk factors (child sexual abuse, household dysfunction and other ACE categories) and adult and child hunger.
