PSY-8316 - Diversity in Trauma and Disaster Response

Semester Credits: 3 Weeks: 8

In this course, you will examine how constructs of culture, ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation influence the experience and effects of trauma from a multitude of contexts, including natural disasters. In addition, you will explore the role of historical and intergenerational trauma as a means to develop cultural competency when responding to trauma. Finally, marginalized populations such as refugees, children of war, and survivors of torture will be examined relative to specific variables that impact trauma or disaster response.
