Robert Schmidt and Sharon Cohen have written what is destined to be a classic - photo 1

Robert Schmidt and Sharon Cohen have written what is destined to be a classic in the mental health field. Disaster Mental Health Community Planning contains comprehensive information on creating community-wide emergency plans for handling traumas, including a psychological component. The text stresses collaboration, communication, assessment, and lessons learned from various types of natural and human-made disasters. It is proactive, beautifully organized, reader friendly, and chock full of essential information for dealing with catastrophes and their aftermath. In an age of unpredictability, this book is a stable resource.

Samuel T. Gladding, PhD, LPC, CCMHC, professor of counseling, Wake Forest University; former American Counseling Association president and ACA Foundation Trustee

Disaster Mental Health Community Planning is a must read for community leaders and mental health professionals before disaster strikes. This book provides invaluable information for considering, creating, and establishing a sustainable resiliency plan in the face of natural and human tragedies. Unfortunately, the necessity for this kind of planning is all too real and necessary in the U.S. today. Having established evidence-based EFT trauma-healing programs in Sandy Hook, Connecticut, and Parkland, Florida, as well as for genocide, indigenous, and refugee communities in Rwanda and Australia, I understand the importance of having a plan in place to bring communities back to resiliency as quickly and effectively as possible; otherwise these kinds of traumas have the potential to debilitate communities for generations.

Lori Leyden, PhD, MBA, international trauma specialist

Disaster Mental Health Community Planning is a comprehensive handbook for communities to plan for and recover from communal trauma. Written as a guide from a first-hand perspective and directly influenced by Schmidts experiences as a Sandy Hook resident and counselor and Cohens background in communication and collaboration, it highlights the importance of addressing the psychological and emotional impact from communal trauma and explains evidence-based trauma therapies that most effectively promote recovery. The authors effectively explain, in laymans terms, the importance of translating chaos into collaboration as a means of promoting community healing following a communal mental health disaster.

Deb Del Vecchio-Scully, LPC, NCC, BCN, DCMHS, diplomat, clinical mental health specialist in trauma counseling, former clinical recovery leader, Newtown Recovery & Resiliency Team, co-founder and clinical director of Center for NeuroPotential and PTSD

Mental health in the U.S. is unfortunately often overlooked or ignored in all aspects of our society. Case in point, many people who are traumatized from a disaster do not receive the treatment needed for long-term care. I hope that communities will use the information in this book to develop a plan specifically aimed to help the needs of these distraught survivors.

John T. Broderick, Jr., former chief justice, New Hampshire Supreme Court

Collaboratives, such as those mentioned in this book and the one we established in California, provide an important way to provide immediate and long-term mental health needs to natural disaster survivors. We recommend such collaborations highly.

Debbie Mason, Past CEO, Healthcare Foundation of Northern Sonoma County

Congratulations to the authors for distilling the very complex topic of disaster mental health and providing all that is needed to develop a plan for effective preparedness and response after a serious incident.

Cindy Ehlers, MS, LPC and executive vice president, clinical operations, Trillium Health Resources
