This program
will empower all educators with a structure and
process for managing school-based crises. Beyond “who
calls who” and “who does what,”
attendees will develop practical skills to address
the emotional needs of people during and
in the aftermath of a crisis. By reaching members
of our school family early, we can keep people functioning
and mitigate ongoing emotional suffering.

About
The Academy
The American Academy of Experts in Traumatic
Stress®
is a multidisciplinary network of professionals
who are committed to the advancement of intervention
for survivors of trauma. The Academy aims to
identify expertise among professionals, across
disciplines, and provide meaningful standards
for those who work regularly with survivors.
The Academy's Traumatic Stress Library and publications
provide practical information for survivors
of traumatic events and those who care for them.
Today, our international membership includes
individuals from over 200 professions in the
health-related fields, emergency services, criminal
justice, forensics, law, business and education.
With Members in every state of the United States
and over 55 foreign countries, our association
is the largest organization of its kind in the
world.
The Academy defines traumatic stress as, “the
emotional, cognitive, behavioral, physiological
experience of individuals who are exposed to,
or who witness, events that overwhelm their
coping and problem-solving abilities."
Our mission is to increase awareness of the
effects of traumatic events and, ultimately,
to improve the quality of intervention with
survivors.
Traumatic stress has many "faces.” In addition
to the devastating effects of large-scale disasters
and catastrophes, the Academy is committed to
fostering a greater appreciation of the effects
of day-to-day traumatic experiences (e.g., chronic
illness, accidents, domestic violence and loss).
Our aim is to help all victims to become
survivors and, ultimately, thrivers.
