About the Course

This Supplemental Research Bulletin is an inventory rather than a review of current research in the field of disaster behavioral health (DBH). The inventory primarily comprises disaster-specific interventions, although several may also be used to assist people who are suffering with distress or disorders associated with other types of traumatic events. The interventions used to support survivors of other types of traumatic events are generally applicable to disaster survivors in the later stages of response activities. Finally, a few of the interventions (those used in the long-term recovery phase of disaster) are applicable only when the survivors have been fully assessed by a licensed or certified professional and determined to have a diagnosable disorder, such as major depression, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), or other anxiety- related disorders.

This course is based on the reading online article, Disaster Behavioral Health Interventions Inventory created by SAMHSA- Disaster Technical Assistance Center in 2015.
