As a clinician, we often talk about coming at it from a trauma-informed lens... We really need to start looking at those contributing factors to the increase that we're seeing in homicide.
What do a trucker convoy, youth gang violence, and mental health support have in common? They all find their place in this engaging episode of 'Road to Recovery with Yonah Budd'. Yonah kicks things off with his take on the recent trucker convoy that rolled into Ottawa, offering a perspective that challenges common narratives.
He then shifts gears to discuss violence in racialized communities with Tanya Sharpe, an Associate Professor at the University of Toronto, and Marcell Wilson, the founder of the One by One Movement. They dig into the root causes of violence, the role of trauma, and why a trauma-informed approach is crucial for real change. The conversation doesn't stop there.
Yonah also talks with Sean Shapiro, a Police Constable with Toronto Police Traffic Services, about how they're using online platforms to support the city. As the episode winds down, Yonah tackles the impact of the pandemic on young retail workers in Canada, shedding light on their unique struggles. Throughout the episode, Yonah emphasizes the importance of positivity and kindness as tools for mental health.
If you're interested in understanding the complexities of violence, youth challenges, and mental health, this episode offers a rich tapestry of insights and practical advice.
