Training
Social Health Care (SHC) Program
The Social Health Care Program is composed of 2 parts: Psychosocial Treatment: disaster health care field clinics, and community-based pilot service projects for at-risk populations, and Local Capacity Building Psychosocial Skills Training: for equipping local service providers with the skills to expand and sustain services. It is based on the Catastrophic Trauma Recovery (CTR) model, an integrated, multi-modal, and interdiciplinary approach for addressing large-scale, community-wide trauma and loss due to catastrophic occurrences in regions of conflict where skill and hard resources are scarce.
