Bio:

“Katherine Hughes, JD, MSW, LICSW is a clinical social worker and attorney with over 20 years of experience working in juvenile court mental health clinics with youth and their families.  She has also practiced law as a legal services attorney, representing women leaving violent relationships.  She is passionate about connecting parents and caregivers with information and resources about childhood trauma so that traumatized children, and their families, receive the help and support that they need to heal, grow and thrive.  She lives near Boston, Massachusetts and can be reached at hughesk.pctr@gmail.com.

Katherine gathered volunteers from the Boston University School of Public Health, the Boston University School of Social Work, the Child Trauma Training Center at UMass Medical School, the Parent/Professional Advocacy League, and two parent focus groups, to create the pamphlet, “Understanding Childhood Trauma and Your Family.”  It was recently redesigned and translated into eight languages by the Family Resource Centers of Massachusetts and can be found at their website:  https://www.frcma.org/about/trauma-and-resilience-resources-and-training
