Description - Healing a Community: Lessons for Recovery After a Large-Scale Trauma by Melissa Glaser
The tragedy of large-scale trauma has etched the names of cities on a national monument of heartbreak and senseless loss. First responders, carers and civic leaders are often left with the daunting task of navigating the emotional and physical aftermath and stitch their communities back together - a trajectory of healing that can take months and years. HEALING A COMMUNITY offers practical advice from one of the America's preeminent community response and recovery leaders. The author is the coordinator of the Newtown Recovery and Resiliency Team (NRRT) - Newtown being the tragic location of the Sandy Hook massacre of primary school children. With this experience and as a psychotherapist with a focus on trauma, Melissa Glaser presents a unique set of pragmatic best practices that communities can learn from and immediately adopt.
