About the Author STACI K.
Haines helps readers identify, understand, and address these sources of trauma to help us bridge individual Healing with Social transformation.

Somatics has proven to be particularly effective in addressing trauma, but in practice it typically focuses solely on the individual, failing to integrate the Social conditions that create trauma in the first place.
Trauma Healing and Social change are, at their best, interdependent.
Just as health practitioners need to consider the societal factors underlying trauma, so too must activists understand the physical and mental impacts of trauma on their own lives and the lives of the communities with whom they organize.
This book is for therapists and Social activists who understand that trauma Healing is not just for individuals--and that Social change is not just for movement builders.
