Childhood Trauma Affects Us All | Gina Heumann | TEDxGrandJunction

Her family suffered for more than a decade until they found a solution for their son’s trauma. She’ll talk about how early prevention can avert tragedy. Gina is an architect and designer and an adoption advocate whose boys come from Guatemala. Her memoir, “Love Never Quits,” was recognized by the Mom’s Choice Awards. Gina is a true Renaissance woman: wife, mother, architect, designer, author, speaker, and adoption advocate. She and her husband Aaron adopted their boys from Guatemala, and life took a frightening turn after they discovered that their youngest son was neglected by his foster mom before they picked him up. He came to them with anger, anxiety, and violence. Gina's love of learning and dedication as a mother sparked her research of different treatments and therapies, which eventually led to their inspirational success story about overcoming reactive attachment disorder. Her memoir, Love Never Quits, chronicles the family's journey and received a Gold Seal from the Mom’s Choice Awards. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
