Happy Women's History Month from the Center of Traumatic Stress Research! Studies have found that African American mothers, who are raising sons in the context of Black Lives Matter, have exacerbated stress, mental strain, and tension. Some mothers have not only experienced this, but grieved the loss of a child to community and state violence. The Mothers of the Movement have used their grief to inspire them to advocate for social reform. CTSR focuses on investigating mental health as it relates to traumatic stress and seeks to discover interventions that mitigate the effect of traumatic stress. Find the most recent newsletter via .

On Saturday November 4, 2017 GirlTrek partnered with the Center for Traumatic Stress reseach to host a Mental Health First Responder training at the XULA Community Outreach Center. GirlTrek spent the day training female college students from around New Orleans on how to best respond to mental health issues in their communities as well as educating them on risk factors that effect the health of women of color. Through lecture, discussion, and activities the young women gained the tools necessary to become certified mental health first responders and impact their communities in a positive way. GirlTrek works on a national level to inspire women to walk in their communities to obtain a more healthy lifestyle, both physically and mentally. The young women who are now certified through the GirlTrek training will now be working towards the same goals at their college campuses, encouraging women to get physically and mentally healthy.
