THE NEUTRAL GROUND COLLECTIVE
An alternative model for understanding how collective posttraumatic growth can manifest itself through co-regulation, by promoting agency and communion.
Repairing our Collective Trauma
"Climate mental health care and disaster mental health care are closely related but refer to different areas of practice & concern. However, sometimes they do overlap. Climate mental health focuses on psychological and emotional impacts of long-term climate change, including existential anxiety, chronic stress, grief, and intergenerational trauma on individuals, communities, and future generations.
Disaster mental health focuses on the psychological first aid/support and interventions needed in the aftermath of acute disasters, whether natural or human-made."

Our work consists of helping both the metro area of New Orleans and communities along the coastal regions of South Louisiana address the effects of climate change and mental health (disaster mental health), historical grief & loss, generational trauma, & systemic racism.
