Like us, you’ve probably been watching the news about Israel and Palestine and wondering what you can do to help. For those who know people in the areas involved, we appreciate what a difficult time this must be.
People from both sides of this conflict will have many needs in the coming months and years. The most pressing priority at this stage is to ensure physical safety and to meet other core needs.
There will inevitably be psychological fallout from this ongoing situation. In anticipation of this — and in the hope that it will be helpful at the appropriate time — we have translated a selection of trauma psychoeducation resources into Hebrew, Arabic, and English. They are freely available for everyone to download and use.

Understanding Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
This is a guide designed to help the reader to understand more about PTSD. As well as a description of trauma, symptoms of PTSD, and effective treatments, this guide explores key maintenance factors for PTSD including: unprocessed memories, beliefs about trauma and its consequences, and coping strategies including avoidance. Written in a friendly and explanatory way, this guide is a comprehensive source of information for those with PTSD (and their friends and family). The concepts are explained in an easily digestible manner, with case examples and accessible diagrams.
