The field of crisis and disaster mental health intervention is rapidly changing. Keeping up with the current research and changes can be difficult, at best. The purpose of this course is to provide participants with an integrated synopsis of program innovations, consensus reviews, and research findings relevant to crisis and disaster mental health intervention. As the ICISF curriculum has undergone significant changes in the last 12 months, this course is offered as a “one stop shopping” opportunity to gain the latest information on issues and changes that are essential to the domains of critical incident stress management, crisis and disaster response.

This is a competency-based course that will serve to satisfy ICISF requirements for ICISF Trained Trainers and those seeking Certificates of Advanced Training. This course is intended for anyone who has an interest in crisis and disaster mental health intervention.
