The AITM Seminar

Addressing the Impact and Trauma of Migration (AITM) is a one, two or three day interactive seminar for those impacted by migration. The overall goal is to promote the wellbeing of everyone through increased awareness and tools for addressing trauma, reducing harms and fostering healthy community integration.

The AITM seminar (and workbook) provides:

•   an overview of the stressors and trauma-producing events of the migration experience (left behind, leaving home, the journey, resettlement, service providers and new community)

•   an integrated framework for understanding the impact of trauma on the body, brain, beliefs and behavior of individuals and communities

•   an understanding of the on-going harm that results from psychosocial harms created during the migration process

•   practical tools for addressing trauma, repairing relationships and building resilience which can be used personally and professionally.

•   access to follow-up coaching as needed.
