About this event
This workshop offers a trauma-informed perspective on the impact of hate incidents on immigrant and refugee communities and explores trauma-informed interventions. The impact of anti-immigrant hate incidents is not limited to individual victims alone and includes communal effects that present further challenges to social integration and communal resilience for immigrant and refugee communities. The workshop explores challenges to transitional processes from cycles of victimization to cycles of healing that may result in greater social alienation and marginalization if unaddressed. Despite the challenges in place, immigrant and refugee communities showcase tremendous resilience and strength to persevere against those challenges. The workshop relies on evidence-based knowledge supported by scientific research as well the experiences of the presenter working with immigrant and refugee communities domestically (Multnomah County) and beyond (The Middle East).
