Some of Hull's senior team members had the privilege of attending the 2025 Symposium on Child and Youth Trauma in Montreal, hosted by the Canadian Consortium on Child and Youth Trauma. With Dr. Bruce Perry delivering the keynote, the event brought together leading voices in trauma-informed care.

Dr. Emily Wang, Dr. David Lindenbach, Denise Manderson, and Dr. Gina Dimitropoulos proudly represented Hull by presenting on “Trauma-Informed Applications of Psychotherapy and Movement-Based Therapy in Schools.” It was an inspiring opportunity to share our work and connect with others committed to supporting children and youth through trauma-informed practices.
