![Vaughan Collins. Research Coordinator, UW Psychiatry & Behavioral Science. “More than 2 out of 3 youth in the U.S. experience trauma. Yet, their ability to access and receive impactful evidence-based treatment is at risk with NIH funding cuts. I work on the R34 grant with the UW ALACRITY Center. We strive to design and promote a treatment called Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy [TF-CBT], which has the strongest evidence of any clinical intervention for youth with trauma. Without funding, our vital work won't be possible.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ffx53k44vvvly7uiuemrl2nc/bafkreif77gjgsj2bssbshplohvzdjwearpyce2g72rsuy5ghzzxezcqxze)
