I was excited to be part of a division that focused on both the understanding and treatment of trauma specifically. My experience in cross-cultural teaching and work in trauma in countries like Sri Lanka, Russia, Northern Ireland and Iran further piqued my interest in being a Diversity Member-at-Large. In addition having both Cherokee and Black Hawk personal heritage has given me a passion to represent indigenous peoples, who are often seen as minorities.

If you have a presentation, course syllabus, or other educational resource to share here please send an electronic copy (no paper copies accepted) to the web editor.
