Displacement
Due to Disaster
Helping
Children of a Catastrophic Disaster Dealing
with Anger, Suicide, Depression, Anxiety Disorders and Other
Disorders of displaced children |
Displacement
Due to Disaster
will equip those who attend with the knowledge and skills needed to meet
this unique challenge. This
training targets -
teachers, school officials, SRO's, Bus Drivers, Counselors and
other youth workers who are in the position of receiving displaced
students.
When
a student is displaced to a new location, new school, he or she has a
considerable adjustment. When a large group of students from a single area
transfer into a new school hundreds of miles away, there is considerable
adjustment for the students of both schools, the staff and the community.
Add the fact that none of these new students wanted to leave their former
schools, they now live in humble conditions and many have lost family
members, friends and pets.
Keep
in mind that not only will the schools be overloaded, so will the support
system that normally would be readily available. Teachers can expect to be
called on to handle issues that counselors handled before and counselors
will be called on to handle issues that clinics previously handled. This
training will provide essential information on such topics as:
- How
to help "old" students accept "new" students
- Should
incoming students be kept together or integrated throughout the system
- How
to identify and de-escalate an angering situation
- How
to stay safe in an unsafe situation
- How
to recognize a potentially dangerous situation
- How
to recognize displacement related issues, such as, depression, anxiety
disorders, suicidal ideations, phobias and others
- What
to refer, When to refer, Where to refer, How to refer.
- What
to do about bullying
- What
to do when you need an SRO but they are all involved in another
situation
