The Impacts of Trauma

Trauma is caused by many things. Living with complex trauma means that our trauma can be re-triggered when we experience events that remind us of what happened before. The team at Women’s Legal Service WA have produced a resource to help us understand what trauma can look like in the legal system. This short animation will be useful for those who have experienced trauma as well as those who support them personally and professionally. Please feel free to use and share.
