reviews, and narrative studies to consider the implications for
clinical practice, community intervention, and social change in the
wake of violence. Sources and Expressions of Resiliency in Trauma

need for a full continuum of resources for traumatized groups,
including: crisis response, individual psychotherapy and group
treatment, victim advocacy, community intervention and social
change. The book also helps clinicians and researchers become more
familiar with theory-driven tools for use in psychological
assessment, case formulation, treatment planning and outcome
