Abstract

Trauma is a global issue and public health concern. Political decisions may directly impact rates of trauma exposure, be it individual trauma or mass disaster, and guide how we deal with the consequences of trauma. In this editorial, we warn that the current U.S. administration’s decisions are impacting exposure to and consequences of trauma worldwide as well as disrupting the field of traumatic stress in research and practice.
