Those who experienced childhood trauma are more likely to drop out of school, have a shorter life, abuse substances, and suffer from myriad mental health and behavioral issues.

How do we intervene to offer these children a more hopeful future?

Marc Hauser is an educator, neuroscientist, and the founder of Risk Eraser, a program that helps at-risk kids lead healthier lives. He is a former professor of evolutionary biology and psychology at Harvard University and the author of over three hundred papers. His new book is Vulnerable Minds: The Harm of Childhood Trauma and the Hope of Resilience.
