This webinar, from 1/27/2010, features Andrea Blanch. It is presented as a part of the National Capacity Building (NCB) webinar series. NCB is a project of the Center for Victims of Torture.
Description:
Over the past decade, trauma has become one of the most talked-about concepts in mental health. However, there are still widespread misconceptions within the mental health field about the most effective ways to work with people who have experienced extreme violence. This presentation will help you to identify approaches that are most relevant to torture survivors, to integrate them into your existing programs, and to build effective partnerships with the mental health system.
