Description:
The Center for the Study of Traumatic Stress (CSTS) conducts research, education, consultation, and training on preparing for and responding to the psychological effects and health consequences of traumatic events. These events include natural (hurricanes, floods and tsunami) and human made disasters (motor vehicle and plane crashes, war, terrorism and bioterrorism). The Center’s work spans studies of genetic vulnerability to stress, individual and community responses to terrorism, and policy recommendations to help our nation and its military and civilian populations. CSTS provides military unique information to NCTSN serving as a knowledge center related to military children and families, to include the impact of combat deployment, combat related parental illness, injury and death on child and family functioning. Fact Sheets on these topics are available on the website and for downloading. |
