Authored with empathy and backed by rigorous research, this book delves into the profound impact of childhood trauma, gun violence, and other traumatic experiences on individuals and communities. Drawing from the lived experiences of childhood trauma advocate Kamelah Blair, the book highlights the therapeutic power of writing as a vital tool for healing. It provides real-life examples and detailed strategies for using writing to process and express traumatic experiences, supported by statistical evidence and expert insights.

With a focus on modularized community support and the integration of therapeutic practices, "Healing Words" offers a comprehensive guide for trauma survivors, advocates, and policymakers.
