Description: Trauma is like a thief in that night that steals peace and joy from the souls of its unsuspecting victims. Whether it is a series of events...or a singular incident...no one is ever left unchanged by traumatic events. Here you will meet 14 trauma survivors who embody the essence of resilience; people who endured the unthinkable, then found a way to rewrite their story, celebrating their strengths and, ultimately, learning to not only survive but thrive. --
