Overview
Description
This course explores different levels of traumatic injuries, the methods of recovery, reconciliation, and healing interventions at the micro-, mezzo-, and macro-levels of practice. Special emphasis of the course will include intergenerational, historical and cultural trauma, cultural reclamation, community outcomes, and cultural ramifications as it relates to Indigenous communities and community members. Further content includes trauma, resilience, and posttraumatic growth at the individual, family, and community levels. Students will learn about how traumatic events have continued to occur historically and currently within Hawai‘i, across the US (United States) and globally. For context, students will be asked to understand their own familial history as it relates to past traumatic events and critically analyze the impact of current local, national, and international efforts towards healing and reconciliation, as well as environmental and restorative justice. Lastly, students will learn about current interventions used towards traumatic stress recovery among individuals.
