On june 28 the Trinidad and Tobago Association of Psychologists will launch its Trauma Treatment Program to media outlets in Trinidad/Tobago (T&T) at a presentation and reception at the Advanced School of Nursing at the medical school here in T&T. So far, we have been interviewed by two of the three major newspapers in T&T. The program consists of nineteen practitioners who are pledged to donate 35 pro bono hours of direct services to individuals and groups referred through our contact number.

Case management will be through group supervision (consultations). Our first case focused on the work of one of the members who was called in by a pre-school program, one of whose teachers had been found with her husband, both of whom had been murdered during the night in their house across the street from the school.

Once again, ITTP has generated a dedicated, indigenous trauma treatment program in another land.

Sincerely,

John Van Eenwyk

Clinical Director – ITTP
