This #4thofJuly holiday, prevent injuries and keep the sparkle in your celebration. Last year in Palm Beach County, 11 people needed trauma center-level care due to fireworks injuries, including five children. More than half of these unintentional injuries happened during July 4th festivities. Our Trauma Agency advises you to leave fireworks to the pros and attend public displays. If adults use fireworks, remember to keep a safe distance, closely supervise children, wear protective gear, ignite one firework at a time, soak spent fireworks, and avoid relighting any that malfunction. #TraumaEducation #WeCareForAll #PreventingTraumaticInjuries #TraumaticInjuryPrevention

Gosh UNRWA, why are you sheltering innocent Gazan civilians in a war zone? Why haven't you asked Egypt to allow innocent Gazan civilians to temporarily cross the Egyptian border? If there were no innocent Gazan civilians in Gaza, there could be no innocent Gazan civilian casualties. International Humanitarian Law requires countries to allow innocent civilians to flee a combat area across the nearest non-combatant border. So why haven't you asked Egypt to allow innocent Gazan civilians to temporarily cross the Egyptian border? We know that the terrorists and oligarchs are allowed to cross the Egyptian border whenever they want, either through the tunnels, or with bribes. Why are the vulnerable required to stay in Gaza? Are you insane?
“The school where we were seeking shelter was bombed. I rushed to search for my father in the corridors filled with the dead and injured. I hugged him: I couldn't believe he was still alive,” says 12-year-old Susan. No children should endure such trauma: #CeasefireNow #WRD2024

Our bodies are so resilient that we are hard wired to adapt to trauma. Those adaptations to collective trauma like racialized violence, gun violence, DV, SA has impacted our sense of Self and how the world should be. Healing our boundaries can help prevent this type of unacceptable behavior, as well as compassionate accountability. Truth and reconciliation will set us all free to live in a world we can create TOGETHER. Click the link below to learn more: https://lnkd.in/gGziu_3a
