Resources on Underserved Populations

Web-Based Trauma Psychology Resources On Underserved Health Priority Populations for Public and Professional Education

The purpose of this project was to create web-based empirically-informed materials (i.e., printable fact sheets, YouTube videos, and suggested reading lists) on trauma and its impact in underserved health priority populations that can serve as valuable resources for clinicians, researchers and the public. Division 56 partnered with collaborative teams from Divisions 12 Section II (Clinical Geropsychology), 20 (Adult Development & Aging), 27 (Community Research and Action: Division of Community Psychology), 33 (Intellectual & Developmental Disabilities), 44 (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Issues), 45 (Culture, Ethnicity & Race), and 53 (Clinical Child and Adolescent) to create the fact sheets and videos found below.
