Recovery from exposure to traumatic events can be
challenging, and the literature recognizes the effectiveness of
eclectic intervention techniques to address the many dimensions of
trauma resolution. This workshop will present both a dramatic
presentation and video excerpts which were created after 9/11 to
address the recovery needs of students in NY and NJ directly
impacted by these events. Discussion will follow.
