In families, friendships, and at church, we are surrounded by people who have experienced and live with trauma.  Pastor and reconciliation activist Fred Liggin talks about what it means to be a trauma-informed church.

Fred Liggin is a pastor and social entrepreneur ministering among the homeless and those struggling with poverty Williamsburg, VA, and is a justice and reconciliation advocate.  Trauma recovery is not a theory or an individual practice for Fred.  It is a holistic and communal activity.
