This document is a resource for current literature, April – June 2023, on the topic of the mental health status of and treatments for torture survivors, war trauma survivors, and refugees. This also includes research in the area of social work that relates directly to the psychological well-being of these populations. The compilation below includes peer-reviewed journal article citations in these areas and links to the publicly available abstracts and full-text versions of these articles. It does not currently include articles on policy and advocacy. Center for Victims of Torture (CVT) volunteer Carolyn Easton conducted the literature search and compiled the citations. A big thanks to Carolyn Easton!
