Dr. Smith, can you tell us about your personal experiences that led you to this work? GUEST: Absolutely, I've spent over two decades working with displaced children, and the trauma they experience is profound. It's incredibly rewarding to help them heal and rebuild their lives. HOST: That's inspiring. Now, let's discuss some industry trends. How does this graduate certificate address current needs in the field? GUEST: This program focuses on evidence-based interventions, child development, trauma-informed care, and cultural competency - all critical areas for effectively supporting refugee children. HOST: Speaking of challenges, what are some common obstacles educators and professionals face when addressing trauma in refugee children?
