Newspapers & Magazines
"Through a Trauma Lens harvests the wisdom of those committed to building a truly inclusive, trauma-informed treatment infrastructure in the United States. On these pages, readers meet positive exemplars who have turned pervasive trauma into transformed relationships, both within and beyond their organizations. The book will appeal to those seeking to grow towards organizational change as part of the broader movement for health equity and social justice."
Nancy D. Campbell, PhD, professor of science and technology studies at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, New York, and coauthor with Elizabeth Ettorre of Gendering Addiction: The Politics of Drug Treatment in a Neurochemical World (2011)

"Dr. Brown has produced a volume worthy of a prominent place on the bookshelves of health care program administrators and providers. Progressing methodically from a description of the research base for relating trauma histories to current health care issues, Dr. Brown details the principles and practices that can guide the conduct of trauma-informed treatment services, as well as describing issues and strategies for the all-important task of achieving the adoption of trauma-informed treatment by existing systems of care."
Barry S. Brown, professor (adjunct), University of North Carolina at Wilmington

"Dr. Vivian Brown is the doyenne of 'change champions.' In Through a Trauma Lens, she makes vivid the intersecting impacts of substance abuse, AIDS, mental illness, cognitive impairment and the reverberating contribution of trauma. Her concept of the burden of treatment-both for clients and providers-is brilliant. Her emphasis on safety bears notice by any program or agency serving any client group."
Margaret Gatz, PhD, professor of psychology, University of Southern California
