Refugee Trauma & Resilience

Since 2003, our team has partnered with refugee and immigrant communities and agencies to develop evidence-based programs and resources to support the healthy adjustment of refugee and immigrant youth and families in the United States. Through innovative research and program evaluation, resource development, intervention development, advisory boards, and training and consultation, we support providers and service systems in delivering exceptional, effective care to refugee and immigrant youth and their families.

We are a site in the National Child Traumatic Stress Network and funded by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Trauma and Community Resilience Center (TCRC) Refugee and Immigrant Core

The Refugee and Immigrant Core is a Category II site of the National Child Traumatic Stress Network and is funded by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. The purpose of the Category II is to raise the standard of care for refugee and immigrant children and their families, and to support the continued adaptation and wide-spread dissemination of Trauma Systems Therapy for Refugees, an effective evidence-based treatment. This includes training, consultation, and intervention and resource development. The Category II does NOT provide direct services to youth and families.
