Abstract
Understanding the disparate outcomes of those who have experienced historical trauma is critical to developing interventions for individuals, families, and communities. The authors1 suggest that population health approaches that incorporate traditional knowledge and practices is one powerful approach for Indigenous communities. Efforts at narrative change at the population level will be key to understanding the impact of the past, dealing with current realities, and empowering for the future. There is much to learn from Indigenous peoples about not only the impact of historical trauma, but the response to that and current traumas, as well as the role of empowering narratives of resilience to offset the demoralization of Indigenous peoples and to address health disparities.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry (JAACAP) is dedicated to advancing the field of child and adolescent psychiatry through the publication of original research and papers of theoretical, scientific, and clinical significance. Our primary focus is on the mental health of children, adolescents, and families.
We welcome unpublished manuscripts that explore various perspectives, ranging from genetic, epidemiological, neurobiological, and psychopathological research, to cognitive, behavioral, psychodynamic, and other psychotherapeutic investigations. We also encourage submissions that delve into parent-child, interpersonal, and family research, as well as clinical and empirical studies conducted in inpatient, outpatient, consultation-liaison, and school-based settings.
In addition to publishing research, we aim to promote the well-being of children and families by featuring scholarly papers on topics such as health policy, legislation, advocacy, culture, society, and service provision in relation to mental health.
At JAACAP, we strive to foster collaboration and dialogue among researchers, clinicians, and policy-makers in order to enhance our understanding and approach to child and adolescent mental health.
