Collective Trauma, Collective Healing : Promoting Community Resilience in the Aftermath of Disaster EPUB
by Jack (International Trauma Studies Program, New York, USA) Saul
Part of the Routledge Mental Health Classic Editions series
EPUB
Description
This book tells the story of how a number of community based projects in response to collective trauma were carried out.
It presents an iterative process of program development that is becoming a best practice in the field of psychosocial support.
The basic ideas elaborated in this book are now being incorporated into the UN sponsored Handbook on Community-based Mental Health and Psychosocial Support in Humanitarian Emergencies. More and more clinicians and community practitioners are developing the kinds of models presented in this book to address a range of mental health challenges not only in situations of collective trauma.
The book has become a text book in many social work programs and post graduate certificate program in trauma studies (see program described in Saul and Simon 2016 on program at Columbia University).
I am currently using the book as text in an international program I direct with Bilgi University Istanbul, and the International Organization for Migration certificate program in humanitarian response.
I am being asked to present the work in major international conferences. The other books that have come out recently on collective trauma and healing do not take a multi-systemic approach.
They tend to incorporate such ideas into an individual clinical model and do not demonstrate how to work to strengthen resilience in families, communities and organizations.
