January 18, 2007. 2:00 - 4:00pm (MST): Managing the Psychological Consequences of Disasters and Terrorism Events

This is a panel and presentations where Speakers cover the management of mental health issues in disaster response. Topics include suggested planning organizational structures, response initiatives to assist providers in meeting community needs and observations about work force support during times of crisis. Given that many communities suffer from a shortfall of mental health professionals and that disasters seemingly create even more need for care, this program both in the presentations and in discussions, allowed attendees an opportunity for broad engagement across the spectrum of preparing for, responding to, and recovering from a disaster.
