Nearly 70 million people today are refugees or forcibly-displaced
migrants. More than half of them are children suffering from the
effects of dislocation and violence. This book provides a framework
to guide mental health providers who work with refugees and
immigrants. The authors describe the unique needs and challenges of
serving these populations, and offer concrete steps for providing
evidence-based, culturally-responsive care. Using the
socioecological model, the authors conceptualize the developing
child as living within concentric circles that include family,
school, neighborhood, and society, embedded within a cultural
context. Mental health providers identify and provide targeted
support to combat disruptions within any or all of these ecological
layers. Chapters examine the complex ways in which culture impacts
the refugee experience, barriers to engagement in mental health
practice and strategies for overcoming them, assessment,
collaborative and integrated mental health interventions, and
efforts to increase resilience in children, families, and
communities. The book is an essential guide for mental health
providers, and all who seek to help children in need.
