TraumaTies: Recap of Season One and Teasers for Season Two

Trauma is defined by the person, not by the event. But that doesn’t mean that victims of trauma have to suffer alone. Shining a light on a diversity of perspectives can help thread the human connection around the universal experience of trauma.

In this episode of TraumaTies, host and Executive Director of the Network for Victim Recovery of DC (NVRDC), Bridgette Stumpf, and co-host, Lindsey Silverberg, Deputy Director at NVRDC, an organization providing free and holistic advocacy, case management, and legal services to DC crime victims, reflect upon the first season of their podcast and provide teasers for next season.

Tune in to hear Bridgette and Lindsey recap the inaugural episodes of the podcast where they spoke to people in different spaces about how trauma shows up, and how it impacts every aspect of a person's life. They also discuss how examining the intersection with individuals who have experienced trauma provided the inspiration for the second season of the podcast, the goal of which is to identify the unsung heroes who navigate the hidden places of trauma in our society. Finally, Bridgette and Lindsey highlight some of the exciting guests that will be on the podcast next season.

Brought to you by Network for Victim Recovery of DC (NVRDC), TraumaTies: Untangling Societal Harm & Healing After Crime is a podcast that creates space and conversations to dissect the structural and systemic knots that keep us from addressing trauma.

Rooted in a belief that survivors of crime deserve respect for their dignity in the aftermath of victimization, NVRDC seeks to empower survivors by informing them of all of the options available and working to transform existing response systems to be more inclusive of the diverse needs that survivors often have after crime.

NVRDC also provides free, holistic, and comprehensive advocacy, case management, and legal services to victims of all crime types in Washington, DC. Visit our website to learn more about how to access our trauma-informed education training and how to partner with us to expand survivor-defined justice.
