Recovering from Terrorist
Acts: Strategies to Aid the Public
Health Professional and Agency
What?
A live, interactive,
satellite teleconference
When?
Thursday, October
11, 2001 from 1:30 pm ñ 3:00 pm EDT
Who?
Sponsored by The Florida
Center for Public Health Preparedness at the University of South Florida College
of Public Health and our partners the Florida Department of Health, the USF
Center for Disaster Management and Humanitarian Assistance, and the Traumatology
Institute at USF
Why?
Acts of terrorism
threaten and often paralyze a society by instilling fear of harm and evoking
helplessness. As a result, individuals and organizations may feel as if
they are being held in emotional hostage. The aim of this program is to aid the
public health professional and agency in recovering from the acute stress and
trauma of terrorism by offering strategies and interventions for helping self,
agency, clients, and community. Through active dialogue among panelists
and program participants, an expert panel will provide an overview of the
psychosocial impact of the trauma of terrorism on society and its citizens, and
offer strategies for recovering from traumatic events.
