German Psychiatrist Returns to Gaza
German Psychiatrist Returns to Gaza

This week, volunteer psychiatrist Dr. Rebecca Bahadori returned to the Gaza Strip to continue her training and support for PCRF's mental health program.  This project was started after the war in 2014 in which tens of thousands of children were psychologically impacted by their firsthand exposure to violence and trauma, leaving them with significant levels of anxiety, PTSD and other mental health issues.  PCRF is one of the main players in the field of providing support and training for local organizations to better intervene in the lives of these children and their families by bringing volunteers like Dr. Bahadori to help support the local professionals.
