Collaborations with the Children's Hospital of Boston
Date Posted: Thursday, May 23, 2019Collaboration with the Children’s Hospital of Boston (CHB). In honor of Foster Care Month, Dr. Heather Forkey joined colleagues from CHB and presented All the Fright We Cannot See: How Trauma Impacts the Brain and Body. Dr. Forkey discussed how children in foster care can present with trauma symptoms and the first steps to address these symptoms. Medical providers, nurses and social workers at CHB who work with kids involved with child welfare attended the presentation. CHB has a foster care clinic – and opportunities for us to collaborate further were a part of our conversations.
