Condolences to those affected by the events at Sandy Hook Elementary School
The Harvard Program in Refugee Trauma (HPRT) and its international faculty sends its condolences to the families and community of Sandy Hook Elementary School and Newtown, CT. This tragedy affected all of us who have worked with survivors of extreme violence over the past 3 decades. We remain committed to serving our society at the time of crisis and are concerned for the mental health of affected families and first-responders six months down the road when natural attention has faded. At this time, HPRT can be called upon if necessary, to lend support.
