Children and adolescents living in volatile homes or communities have a unique set of issues, needs, and concerns. Health care providers or professionals must confront and attempt to effectively promote the healing and restoration of children and adolescents who have actually self-reported and who are at-risk for exposure to various forms of violence and trauma as a result of living in volatile homes or communities. The Safer Tomorrows ProjectŠ have partnered with colleagues to confront this disparate health care issue.
