N2  - There is a steady accumulation of research and clinical evidence documenting the effect of traumatic events on the development of infants and young children. Trauma involves the impact of extreme physical or psychological stressors that overwhelm a child's ability to cope. Traumatic events threaten serious injury, death, or the psychological integrity of a child or another person. Young children are frequently exposed to a range of traumatic stressors, including hurricanes, near drownings, car accidents, and shootings, as well as physical and sexual abuse, domestic violence, war, and terrorism. Because young children have limited coping skills, they are particularly at risk for negative outcomes associated with traumatic events.
